- ... that the bicoloured sedge was part of an attempted botanical fraud?

Article is new, long enough, and well-written and well-cited. Hook is very interesting and cited. QPQ is done; image is free, in use, and works at this size. However, several phrases like "pools in wet sand" and "patches of bare, wet mud and in open areas in marshes" are directly taken from source 3 and need to be rewritten. Additionally, the article doesn't actually mention the bicolor appearance of the species name, which seems like a notable omission. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 23:38, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
- @Pi.1415926535: I was curious about the bicolor too and have added something about the colour. I have rewritten the other bit; it wasn't really taken from source 3, it merely turned out much the same. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:31, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
