Those flower petals can be cheated, they go under the main center circle, so they don’t have to be a single mesh. It can be achieved much simpler and since these are part of a bigger model, a small detail wont be as important. One thing you learn is to pick your battles and where to put all the effort, like triage. If you want to make them a single mesh just for the challenge, then go for it and try your best, make all the mistakes, don’t be afraid if the result is all skewed and blobby and you have to try again, because it’s your brain that has to get the hang of this, and the intuition will come with repetition. Post it here once you are done. You have posted other models you have modeled and they look super good.
Also you have to watch tutorials, the lessons will answer most of your questions as teachers explains most of the stuff.
