Expanded fivefold, beginning on the 9th, so sufficiently and recently enough. Topic appears to be adequately covered, and article is clear and well organised, except I found one left-over misspelling from the pre-expansion version that rendered the sentence unclear, and one misplaced sentence; both fixed. Adequate referencing, from reliable sources, and I checked about half, including those used most often, and found no overly close paraphrasing. The hook fact has a reference and checks out, and is interesting. The only problem I found is that the Boland reference appears to be to the wrong page - I found Eucalyptus robusta on p. 298, not p. 88. Sort that out and it'll be good to go.

- Fixed now. That was really weird. I've not written about Cochlospermum from that book so not a leftover cut and paste. Anyway, fixed now. Casliber (talk · contribs) 20:42, 19 April 2012 (UTC)
Yup, now all ready :-) Yngvadottir (talk) 20:52, 19 April 2012 (UTC)
