Puzzle Description:
Calla lilies...that's my story and I am sticking to it.

No guessing. Edge logic on the green 8 in C30 (it can't be placed in the lower half) lets you get through most of the puzzle. Then the last green portion was very tricky and fun to solve. This might be impossible without guessing; I am not sure if I looked more than 2 moves ahead. I will let someone else confirm this.#2: Cecily (TheLorax) on Dec 28, 2009 [HINT]
I found I only had to guess once in the lower right hand corner and then was about to logic out the rest of it. Not really sure how to change it and as it's late I must go to bed now. I will check back in the morning to see if there is something I can do about it.#3: ant (agrest272) on Dec 28, 2009 [HINT]
i agree with #1, I had to look a couple of moves ahead for the bottom right, which I guess is 'deep logic' and considered guessing..#4: Gator (Gator) on Dec 29, 2009 [HINT]
I was able to use some edge logic with the 3 clue in column 30 and the 2 clue in row 30 to get some dots, but I could not find a way to finish this one out.#5: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Dec 29, 2009
New version published by TheLorax.#6: Jota (jota) on Dec 29, 2009
I just finished the older version. Now I'm confussed!#7: Cecily (TheLorax) on Dec 29, 2009 [SPOILER]
I'm sorry, I wanted it to be solvable without guessing, so I added a flower.#8: faeriefoundling (faeriefoundling) on Jan 4, 2010 [SPOILER]
At first I thought it was a blue parrot. Then I decided they were blue Olympic torches! But flowers are pretty too! ;)#9: Fran (rmm) on Jan 7, 2010
Thanks for the cool fun :D#10: Jane Doe (telly) on Jan 7, 2010 [SPOILER]
My favorite flowers! They were my wedding bouquet. :)#11: CB Paul (cbpaul) on Jul 10, 2020 [SPOILER]
I don't see any flower. Looks like the heads of 2 blue ducks with green beaks.
As for the solve, tricky. What's "guessing" and what's "look ahead" has never been clear to me. Maybe I see a likely move based on the flow of the piece, and it's correct; or maybe I see a likely move based on logic, and it's correct' or maybe it's not. So is that guessing or logic? I dunno.
Tricky, and fun, too. I'll look for version 1. (Or version 3?)
OK, I just searched, and found only 4 puzzles by TheLorax, so no version 1 or 2 exists. sigh. Be well, all (she said to 11 years into the past).
