Why use a flower wheel

Sixteen garden and wild flowers are on the wheel. Spin one and draw it, look up when it blooms, or let the wheel choose what to plant this spring.

Draw or paint a flower
Spin a flower and draw it from a photo, petals, leaves and stem.
Learn the parts of a flower
Students spin a flower and label its petals, stem, leaves and center.
Choose what to plant
Can’t decide what goes in the garden or a window box? Let the wheel pick one.

This wheel wears the Meadow-Go-Round theme: pastel meadow hills and wildflowers, with wildflower washes on the wheel. Your own copy keeps it, or pick another wheel theme.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which flower turns to face the sun?

Young sunflowers follow the sun across the sky during the day. Once they are fully grown, most face east.

Is the wheel really random?

Yes. Every entry has a slice of the same size, and where the wheel stops is picked with your browser’s cryptographically secure random number generator (crypto.getRandomValues), so nobody can predict or rig the result.

Can I change the entries on this wheel?

Yes. Click “Create your own flower picker” to save your own copy. You can then add, remove or rename entries, change the theme and spin settings, and share or embed your wheel.
