I got it after a hour, but only after visting another online version of this puzzle that just showed the dice -- putting the numbers under the dice was cruel.

I got the solution, but what does it have to do with a flower and its outer parts? The name seems trivial, unless its an allusion to something other than the flower.

I found the solution in a few minutes, but no idea what the petals of a rose have to do with it.

I got the maths but can't figure out the relationship with a rose ?

An excellent math puzzle! As one website states: the better you are at math, the harder it is to solve the puzzle.

Enjoy!

Pretty Cool ... I wouldn't have got it if I had not looked at a picture of a Rose.

I managed to solve this by writing down fourteen patterns (two for each solution from zero to twelve) and studying it in the bathroom.

Though i must say i feel like i've only half-solved the puzzle. That is, i can always answer correctly, but i have no clue what the significance of the name is!

Took me five or ten minutes, thinking hard between rolls. I didn't get it until I switched to another version of the game, which doesn't have coloured dice.

I had a couple of really good theories going there for a few rolls!

Brilliant puzzle, the name of the game solved it for me!
