Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming
(Published on 21. December 2024, 01:57 by yttrio)
Lo, how a rose e'er blooming from tender stem hath sprung!
Of Jesse's lineage coming as seers of old have sung,
it came, a flow'r so bright,
amid the cold of winter, when half-spent was the night.
Rules:
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
Red lines are Region Sum Lines: 3x3 box borders divide each line into segments with the same sum. Different lines may have different sums.
Green lines are German Whispers Lines: Adjacent digits along the line must have a difference of at least 5.
Digits separated by a white dot are consecutive. Not all possible dots are necessarily given.
Solution code: Row 9

Very pretty but for me hard. I am not sure if I missed something more obvious.

This is a beautiful picture puzzle! I love the fact that it needs only two white dots besides the flowers. Great setting. Thank you very much for creating and sharing. Merry Christmas.

Thank you! That is such a beautiful little puzzle, both logically and thematically. Also thanks for introducing those english lyrics of this evergreen Praetorius. Merry Christmas!
