Hi everyone, can anyone tell me how to crochet this? I'm totally at a loss.

The photo is just too small for me to see exactly how to crochet it.
I might be able to figure it out from the crochet chart, but you can’t really see how the previous row turned out, can you?

Hello, a picot = 3 chain stitches and then 1 slip stitch into the first of these 3 chain stitches. 
Since the text is in English, based on the picture I would say that you have 3 treble crochet leaves there, and then chain stitches go on top. And this picot goes into the middle one. 
Hope I was able to help a little
 Best regards, Katja

Hi Knuddelchen, it’s just so small and unfortunately hard to read. But to me, it looks like you start with a double treble crochet in the lower center of the previous row, then crochet the right petal—double treble crochet, treble crochet, double crochet, half double crochet—but finish them all together; then come the chain stitches between the 1st and 2nd clusters; then the middle petal—crochet it as a cluster again; here you work the tip (picot), which would be the 5 chain stitches; then the chain stitches between the 2nd and 3rd clusters. Then 3 ch, 1 sc in the tip of the previous row, 3 ch, and then it starts all over again.

Oh, now the formatting was gone, forget that.

Hello Knuddelchen

,It's just so small, and unfortunately hard to read. But to me it looks like this:

that you start with a triple treble crochet,  in the  lower middle of the previous row, then crochet the right petal - triple treble crochet, double treble crochet, treble crochet, half double crochet, but finish them all off together

then come the chain stitches that are between the 1st and 2nd cluster,

then the middle leaf - crochet it again as a cluster, then crochet the tip (picot) here, that would be the 5 chain stitches

then the chain stitches that are between the 2nd and 3rd cluster, crochet the 3rd cluster,

then 3 chain stitches, 1 single crochet into the tip of the previous row, 3 chain stitches and then it starts all over again.
