I'll be happy to review this (also my 350th review, by coincidence) JAGUAR 19:01, 8 November 2015 (UTC)
Oh and I just realised this is the 5,000,000th article! JAGUAR 19:05, 8 November 2015 (UTC)
Initial comments edit
- "Initially considered to be a subspecies of P. nutans" - should Persoonia nutans be fully written out? I see it's abbreviated elsewhere in the article, so feel free to ignore if I'm wrong. It is, however, not abbreviated in the Taxonomy section
- "and are followed thereafter by purple-striped green fleshy drupes" - I'm not sure if "fleshy" sounds a bit informal here
- The lead could be expanded slightly in order to summarise the article. For example, Persoonia terminalis first being treated in 1981 isn't mentioned in the lead
- "although occasional flowers have been seen to July" - in July?
- "A proportion of flowers do have a true leaf instead" - 'do' sounds redundant
- "Hardy to heavy frosts, P. terminalis is expected to fare better in a temperate rather than subtropical garden climate" - the beginning of the sentence doesn't make sense
- "which lies dormant in the soil" - the reference given here doesn't mention that terminalis lies dormant in soil

Well done on writing the fifth millionth article, I didn't realise what I stumbled on after I took the review! This is a well written and comprehensive article, although I spotted a couple of minor things. I'm not that knowledgeable in flora, so please forgive me if I made any misunderstandings. Once all of the above are addressed then this should be good to go. JAGUAR 19:29, 8 November 2015 (UTC)
