Mediterranean plants north of the

Reviewing - new enough? Nominated within 7 days of creation on Nov. 24. Long enough? Well over 1500 character (4300+). Cited? Yes, although the proposed hook is actually split between a couple locations in the article, but reliable source. Policy? No copyvio found by Earwig or manual spot check, no other outstanding issues, well-written. I prefer the proposed hook over ALT1 - no suggested modifications. Nice work. —

@
Ganesha811 and
Smurrayinchester: Reagrding ALT0 the given source acctually says The 4.42-hectare site is one of the largest publicly accessible gardens of southern European plants north of the Alps. So our hook may need to be qualified as "largest publicly accessible". I will promote as is and the promoting admin can decide. I am just not sure if I am calling for too much specificity.
