Article is long enough and new enough; no sourcing, copyright, or content issues were found. Hook has good source and meets length and format criterion. I recommend first hook; ALT1 uses word petals twice...i.e. petals are not petals...interesting perhaps, but also a little confusing. Image is from flickr with only Attribution/ShareAlike restrictions; image attribution is included in upload; rollover tag is good. However, QPQ is not done yet.Orygun (talk) 03:00, 15 December 2024 (UTC)

To editor Orygun: QPQ completed. Cremastra ‹ u — c › 14:13, 15 December 2024 (UTC)

I see you’ve added another hook option (i.e. Alt2). All three hook options meet DYK hook and sourcing requirements. I think first and third are better than second for reasons stated above. QPQ is now done, so DKY is ready to go.Orygun (talk) 23:05, 16 December 2024 (UTC)
