Flower bloom

Normal sudoku rules apply.
In the grid, every occurrence of one of the digits from 1 to 9 (which has to be determined) represents the center of a flower.
In all boxes except box 5, they are orthogonally 4 cells apart from the ones in the adjacent boxes.
Each flower center is surrounded by orthogonally adjacent petals. Petals are all even numbers.
All cells surrounded only by petals or the borders of the sudoku and that are not flower centers have the value of their corresponding box number. The flower center in box 5 has the same restriction.
Disjoint groups rule: cells that appear in the same position in each box must not contain the same number.
All cells separated by a white dot must be consecutive.
Solve in CTC
Lösungscode: Box 9 in normal reading order (left to right)

Changed from "exactly 4 cells apart" to "orthogonally 4 cells apart": they are not on the same line or column.

@gfoot I see what you mean, I'll change to "orthogonally", I think it will be more logical because it's not okay to count diagonally

Thanks for this, a nice bit of fun!
At first I thought "exactly 4 cells apart" meant in a straight line, though that obviously wouldn't work - perhaps there's a clearer way to put it but I'm not sure, terms like "manhattan" or "rectilinear" distance are peprhaps not well-known enough to use
