today i discovered cakeverse
Nah, sadly its still very niche, you can find some comics and art on tumblr and twt probably.
Its basically like hanahaki x omegaverse coming together for a genre, the closest i can recc is a hanahaki manga that also has some ov undertones

Yes, A story (Spring in the Heart) by bbong author of Never Understand, was discontinued due to copyrights issues cause the flower disease is patented under the name Hanahaki by Matsuda Naoko.
Later it was found out that the statement given that the Hanahaki disease is patented was false, the concept was never patented/copyrighted (there's no info saying it is). The possible reason the manhwa got backlash could mainly be that a Korean author was using a Japanese concept. In 2017 there was a lot of tension between the netizens. Lez hin at this time was still at its beginning and most likely didn't want to add to the fuel and listened to readers complaints.

Many verses, some are just more known than the others
And Hanahaki:
https://fanlore.org/wiki/Hanahaki_Disease
Hanahaki disease is where a person develops flowers in their lungs due to unrequited love. As the disease progresses, the flowers grow and cause severe coughing and difficulty breathing. The condition can only be cured by either confessing love or having the feelings reciprocated. (Or as I read in almost all fanfictions, they can do surgery to remove the flowers, but it also removes their feelings for the person they long for) if your an ALNST fan(ivantill) I could give u a fanfic lol
what... i thought they were fighting??
