Just a reminder that species do go extict, but these flowers are not a new species. This is not really creation. To be fair it could lead to some in the future. Evolution of new species takes some time.

I was thinking more about the new bloom as a creation/rebirth metaphor, not that the plant itself is some new genetic mutation. I apologise, I likely wasn't entirely clear with my navel-gazing.

I feel I should apologize too, I'm not always grasping metaphors correctly. I actually like your Saṃsāra association.
