It looks good - just a couple of minor suggestions before it fully meets the
criteria:
1. could an explanation of 'thigmatropic' and 'amphiploid' be added?
2. should the 'citations' section not be called 'references'?
3. consider whether a gallery is really essential? Commons is more the place for image galleries.
Looks like it meets criteria, Worldtraveller's suggested changes all addressed. Pete.Hurd 03:27, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
These words appear in the header: "sterile hybrid between these two species doubled its chromosomes to produce fertile progeny". Is this jargon I don't grok, or is this nonsense? How does a sterile hybrid double its chromosomes? How does a sterile anything do anything with chromosomes? How does a sterile anything produce progeny (fertile or not)? I'm no botanist, but I think the intent is that the hybrid is normally sterile, but an polyploid hybrid was fertile, and led to this species. — Randall Bart (talk) 23:10, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
