These classic floating roses now bloom in two colors at once. I’ve resliced Owl Amazing Crafts’ flower so each layer alternates filaments, creating a vertical fade that shifts smoothly from one solid hue to another.

Four different sizes: 100 mm, 80 mm, 60 mm, and 40 mm diameters

Why it works

Each petal is broken into micro-layers that hand off from Color A to Color B a fraction at a time—no special gradient filament required. Translucent PLA (e.g., any Bambu Lab Translucent plus Basic White) lets light blend the tones for a glassy, water-lily look. Opaque pairs will show crisper bands if you prefer a striped effect. Prints cleanly without supports; the flat underside keeps the bloom upright on water or the table. 

Note: The colors shown in the preview images of the various sizes are just examples. You can pick any color for all the sizes.  

Printer notes

Best on H2D – dual independent extruders swap colors every layer with almost zero purge waste.

Works on any Bambu printer with AMS; just budget for purge blocks and a few extra minutes.
