 * Comment: There are lots of possible hooks, if anyone wants to suggest another; I felt this hook tied the two articles together well.

 * Symbol confirmed.svg Both articles are sufficient in length and date of creation, and the hook is reliably cited to a source available online. The QPQ reviews are done, and the copyvio check didn't turn up anything suspect. Both photos appear to be public domain. My personal preference is for the photograph of the flower, due to its artful and attractive composition.
