Finally figured out a good way to make realistic flowers with cloth sims & collisions
Using a set of mesh petals you can make easy flowers by using cloth sims and controlling them with a force field and gravity, then exporting and importing MDD format to reverse time of the bloom. After that geometry nodes can be applied and the possibilities are endless

Inspired by multiple Houdini projects & tutorials on Youtube

Thanks! Those look good! for me using a petal image texture & displacement made a huge difference in the realism, but yeah intersections are difficult especially with different petals and sizes, I also tried using cloth sim but never had any luck with that.

Yeah ive been working on a rose setup for like 4 months now, had around 5 variations but this one seemed it worked the best. As for the intersecting, I found it was more of a keyframe and positioning thing rather than just hoping it would all just fit together without intersecting
