  Very nice!

  5A The clue is unclear about whether WARTS or STRAW is the solution.

    Thanks! WARTS is the solution. I led with the latin name and provided a comma to help separate it from the rest of the clue; I hoped the reverse “suck it” would get people to STRAW reversed to WARTS. How would you edit the clue to make it clearer?

    Oh! 4A! I’m glad you liked it. Definitely went for the imagery/typography on that one. LL
