How this works

Twelve full circles all drawn from the same starting point, but the turtle turns 30° between each. Because Python's turtle draws each circle off to one side, rotating between them creates petals arranged around a center.

Your turn — try these

  • 1Change `range(12)` to `range(24)` — more petals!
  • 2Change `right(30)` to `right(45)`. What shape do you get now?
  • 3Give each petal a different color from a list — like the rainbow spiral does.
