I nearly failed this, forgetting that we now have 7 days' grace to do expansion, which occurred from 6-12 June. Oops. The hook is cited to the Tulsa World which claimed on April 1, 2014 that two-thirds of the roses had been destroyed, so it is factually correct. The article itself doesn't clarify this quite as well, so I've done a small copyedit there. The expansion went from 1,351 characters to 7,986 in this time, which more than the five times required. I've copypasted a few sentences into Google, and there doesn't seem to be any evidence of duplication. So we're good to go. Ritchie333 ^{(talk) (cont)} 14:46, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
