FLOWERS are people TOO!!

Actually have you ever thought how people are so much like flowers? There is such a variety of flowers around the world that you could spend many lifetimes just in the study of flowers and even then there will be more that you haven't encountered. PEOPLE are found in such a variety of colors, races, nationalities and personalities. Taking time to stop and get to know them is even more fascinating!!

Some flowers are overlooked... in fact, some call little tiny flowers in a field-- wildflowers... and many times they are even called weeds. What makes the difference between when a tiny flower is called a weed or if it is called a flower? Who is the judge of that?? What some may want to collect and decorate their homes with -- other people will want to mow down as to them they are nothing but weeds.

People look at other people in this same way. But, who is the judge of who is a flower and who is a weed?

This puzzle is to help you take the time to stop and smell the flowers. It has about 700 flowers in it presented in 9 collages. It is large enough that you can take time solving it and really appreciating the unique beauty of each and every one of them. (It lasts till May 2nd!)

Here are the steps to solve:

  1. Open up a collage from the table below and use the 2 GA puzzle pictures to find the coordinate location of each of the circular puzzle pieces.
  2. Write down both sets of 5 part coordinates... an example of a set of coordinates: K2, B3, C2, D3, J1
  3. Use the key FOR THAT COLLAGE to find what each coordinate equals to that will be one of the characters in a 5 character GA code.
  4. Find 2 hidden GAs in each collage making a total of 16 GAs to find. (Each GA gives you access to 3 more GAs!)
  5. Collect the circular puzzle pieces from each of the 16 GAs. BLUE pieces are to find a hidden itstoohard puzzle and YELLOW pieces are to find a hidden JIGIDI puzzle. (HINT helper: the pieces can be found on any of the 8 collages but there is only 1 ITH and 1 Jigidi piece to find on each collage.)
  6. You will have to solve LOGICALLY a way to rearrange them in the right order. (Both Jigidi pieces and ITH pieces follow the same logic to order them.)
  7. Solve the ITH and JIGIDI you find and both the ITH and the JIGIDI together after solving will give you what you need to find the FINAL hidden ITH!!

Have fun!! And take time with this puzzle-- the goal is to really enjoy the experience and to reflect on how PEOPLE are flowers too!!

This was a great puzzle. Thanks for the hint on the order. I tried 8 or 9 combinations before I looked for the hint. I still have to solve the ITH and the Jigidi. A big thank you for this puzzle.
