Potted Plant Paper Squishy Template, Five Leaves
The potted plant paper squishy template is a small green leafy plant with five round leaves in a cream pot with a rim, free to print. The face is on the pot. It's a plant that never needs watering.
Quick answer
Print it at 100 % and colour the leaves green. Tape both halves, cut round the leaves and join them. Stuff the pot well and the leaves lightly. An adult cuts, and it isn't for children under three.

A little plant in a pot
A potted plant is a cosy desk shape. Ours has five round leaves fanning out.
The leaves are round, not pointy, which makes them easy to cut. The cream pot has a rim at the top. The face smiles from the pot, and the back is a plain pot with leaves, so this is a nice small gift for someone who always forgets to water their real plants.
Round leaves, gentle cuts.

Making the potted plant
- Print at 100 % and colour the leaves green and the pot cream.
- Tape both halves and cut along the outer grey line.
- Tape the halves back to back and leave the bottom of the pot open.
- Stuff the leaves lightly with a pencil, then the pot, and close it.
A full pot helps it stand. Our paper squishy guide covers the method, and the cactus is in the template collection.
