1/1 Crystal and its pattern of DNA Codons

As we know each DNA crystal contains either 12...24 or 4 codons in this particular crystal the 1/1 - 9/9 we have 12 codons .....


We can see in this image the pattern is made from a choice of four colours or letters but only three
can be used at any one time in a codon. Yet if we draw a three petalled codon and then the fourth
petal of the flower forms the next codon up we appear to be creating a four leaf flower rather than a
three leafed flower. Draw a circle around the four leaf petals and we see how the bottom of one
flower and the top of the next combine within the circle.  It also appears like a spiral of DNA codons.
Another version is the crystal six sided shape that holds all 12 codons within cubes....circles, cubes, flowers, so many ways to denote DNA codons.
