This logo flower is out of Seymour Papert's first book Mindstorms: Children, Computers and Powerful Ideas. I've sent it to the flowers for seymour flickr group and have also signed the MIT card.
I used George Mills MSWLogo to make it, which is built on top of Brian Harvey's Berkeley Logo.
How to make the flower using logo:

end
Then use the quarter circle to make a petal
to petal :size
q_circle :size

Then use the petal to make a flower with 10 petals

Then add a stem and an extra petal to make a plant
to plant :size
flower :size

petal :size
bk 65 * :size

to saveplantgif :size
setactivearea[-100 -200 100 100]
