Melaleuca wilsonii[edit]
- ... that Wilson's honey myrtle (pictured) flowers worst in humid areas?

- The article is long enough, adequately expanded within the timeframe and is stable. QPQ is done. The hook is short enough and the fact is cited to a reliable offline source. It's not the most attention grabbing of hooks, though. Can anything better be found? The image has an appropriate license & works fine at the size. There are a few things in the article that worry me. The lead has several statements that aren't referenced in the text, including the point of view that it is "one of the most attractive of the genus" and the fact that it's "widely cultivated", which doesn't appear fully supported by sources. The first paragraph of the description needs references. Duplication detector pulled up several instances of stretches of repetition from sources, and on closer inspection some sentences appear to be pulled together by nearly duplicating more than one source.

- can be tricky with only a limited number of synonyms - I will look at this in a few hours when I have hte books next to me. cheers, Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 23:22, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
- update - changed to "often" cultivated - added a ref. removed the "attractive" (and included that ref another way) Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 01:39, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
New reviewer needed to check Cas Liber's updates; will need to recheck close paraphrasing. Espresso Addict has only made a single edit in April and we have to assume won't be back. BlueMoonset (talk) 21:00, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
