# Specimen Bloom Hero

> Split hero styled as a botanical plate. A wireframe lotus grows in from the stem, then blooms layer by layer. Callouts with leader lines track the moving mesh and light up the part they name, either in turn or on hover. Drag to turn the specimen. Ink on paper in light mode, a glowing wire bloom in dark mode. Canvas 2D, no three.js.
