Flower names for girls

Hello! I’m new here. Currently expecting our 3rd & final baby. We have two beautiful girls already - Poppy and Bluebell, and have recently found out this baby is a girl too! So we are looking for another flower name to go with Poppy and Bluebell. I’ve always loved Rose, however it I struggle because of the association with Rose West the serial killer (silly I know because the name and the flower are beautiful but I always think of her) Lily is also gorgeous but I already know lots of Lily’s. Any suggestions?
Other option we thought of is going for a jewel name as I’m named after a jewel myself, but ideally would like a flower to go with the other two 😊💜 - Please note, my other 2 girls are already named so I really don’t need to know if you don’t like their names 😹 just looking for ideas on what to call DD3, thanks in advance 🌸🩷 x

Jasmine? a lovely winter flowering shrub, so not quite a flower, we chose it.

How about Rosie instead of Rose then? I really don’t think other people are likely to associate the name with Rose West rather than 101 other more lovely associations. Also love Iris, Violet (Lettie or Vi) and Lily.

I have a Bluebell!

I love Daisy.
I'd be tempted to use Lily-Rose but hyphens are frowned upon on MN!
Or you could use nature names that aren't necessarily flowers
Hazel
Fern
Autumn
Clover
