right the name of this teaser is "petals around the rose"

now if you already know this one please don't spoil it for the rest

Image

right in the pic above you have 5 dice how many petals are around the rose.

a little hint is the number of petals around the rose can only be an even number

enjoy

Ha ha no clues please ladies or gentlemen! Its not as hard as it looks is all I'm gonna say
What come's next? who care's, why worry about things over which you have no control. Freedom is a voyage of discovery with all the enjoyment of seeing things and experiencing events for the first time. Just sit back and enjoy the ride.
