a few magic questions with varying degrees of spoilers

we will get into the particulars of both eventually, but i would describe artisanry as more “logical” than flower reading overall.

once a flower is completely exhausted, it’s gone. he’d need to get a new one.

thank you for asking this again; it was the reason i thought to do this in the first place, but i couldn’t find it in my inbox.

there’s some leeway. the flower would have to be reasonably close, but that could mean “visible from across the room” depending on the circumstances.

yes and no. flower meanings are inherent, but they can only be accessed by humans through the lens of personal experience. when loic says the popular perception of the dandelion makes its meaning easier to work with, he means it’s easier to invoke “mundanity” by seeing the flower itself as mundane. if people were inclined to see dandelions as rare (as they might have been before the Mosaic, for all we know,) they’d have an additional mental hurdle to overcome in meditation before “getting” the inherent meaning.
