This project is going to be worked generally in sets of three rows. Carry the color changes up the sides of the pattern. To add some visual interest and to make sure color changes are on the right side the first row is singular and the rest of the rows have two passes of the same color before switching colors.
Colors will be referred to as ground, leaves, or bud1 or bud2 for easier swapping of colors.
