The most interesting, but also the most difficult - hatching,application of highlights and shadows. So, the bud is drawn with barely noticeable lines, it is unnecessary to make them more distinctly, it is only necessary to slightly shade the middle of the petals and their edges, the inner petals shade a little more strongly.
