A brainteaser for you

This is called Petals Around The Rose. It says the smarter you are, the harder it is for you to figure it out. Apparently, I'm a genius, because someone had to explain it to me.

I assume that there is some sort of pattern that is followed to get the answer, but I sure can't find it.

I could spill the beens but I'd probably get yelled at for it. Hint = the rose is in the center.

I must be amazingly smart. I haven't tried much but I hate those kinds of things. I'm just not an abstract thinker.
