The bounty password looks like 2 names, a type of flower, and a two word object. That significantly reduces the search space. Though, it's likely at least one of those words are non-standard or wouldn't be found in any wordlist.
This is the kind of password I use to protect my actual secrets. So if someone is able to crack it, I'd like to know. The bounty is for a 'realistic' use case.
If you want to avoid wordlist vulnerabilities, try this:
Choose a lyric from a favorite song. Concatenate the first letter of each word in the lyric. Example:
“Rock the Casbah
Sharif don't like it”
Becomes:
rtcsdli
Add capitalization or numbers/special characters according to your own pref. For example, maybe your decide to alternate lower and upper case and always end with a bang:
rTcSdLi!
Although you have to use the same capitalization rules for all passwords if you have any hope of remembering them.

I bet 1000 years will be enough as tech and math progresses.
Or 24h, flight tickets, and a wrench.
