  • I cannot verify the source for the hook because it is a broken link. Length is fine, other references are good, image is properly licensed and it's new enough. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 07:24, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
  • Thanks for the review. Yes, there appears to be a problem with the link. I have now replaced it with another reference which gives the same text.--Nvvchar. 14:31, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
  • Good to go - although if you wanted, you might improve the "Rhododendron" link by piping it to Rhododendron arboreum, the specific species which is the national flower. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 17:02, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
  • Yes, thanks.--Nvvchar. 17:21, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
