The article mentions "petals" on the stem. Shouldn't it be "leaves"?--S.Camus 09:24, 8 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Don't flowers usually have petals, not leaves? 98.221.133.96 (talk) 00:41, 12 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I agree that flowers have petals on the main bloom portion, but they also can have leaves along the stem. The way that it is currently written, it states "...arranged the stem of Brian Jones's flower so that it had no leaves...", again, referring to the stem, where the leaves are (or in this case, where they are not, but should be). Since no one has touched this debate in nigh on 11 years, I'll stop here, but would be glad to research it further. FiggazWithAttitude (talk) 18:48, 7 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Released in Europe also

[edit]

This album was released also in Europe and UK-versions were available with same tracklisting.

Fair use rationale for Image:FlowersLP.jpg

[edit]

Image:FlowersLP.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 09:37, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Move discussion in progress

[edit]

There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Aftermath (The Rolling Stones album) which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 10:15, 23 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This issue was resolved in September 2019 by moving page Flowers (The Rolling Stones album) to Flowers (Rolling Stones album). — CuriousEric 14:48, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

US only release or UK/US release?

[edit]

The lede states it was their 2nd compilation album and the Infobox shows it as a US-only compilation, and the Between_The_Buttons LP article Infobox has "US chronology next=Flowers" and "UK chronology next=Satanic_Majesties" (bypassing the Flowers LP). But the "Compilations" section of the Stones' Discography article seems to list it as an international release (ie. it shows no separate UK release and US release dates). And just as confusingly, Wikipedia's Through_the_Past,_Darkly_(Big_Hits_Vol._2) (1969) LP article has an Infobox with an International-style "compilations chronology previous=Big_Hits_(High_Tide_and_Green_Grass) (1966)" - which came out before the 1967 Flowers LP! Added to that, the Big_Hits_(High_Tide_and_Green_Grass) (1966) article has no Infobox compilations chronology at all, so that one can't work forward for a clearer picture of where the Flowers compilation stands in the order from there. Ultimately a lack of clarity in one of the three articles 1.Flowers, 2.RS.Discography, and 3.TTPD(BHv2) has probably caused the inconsistent/confusing results in the other two. Needs some cross-article sorting out, please! Pete Hobbs (talk) 14:27, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
