Rose ...Rosa berberifolia


Tulip....Tulipia


Daisy...Bellis simplex


Pansy....Viola tricolor


Sunflower....Helianthus


Carnation....Dianthus caryophyllus





Below is the link to The home page for Wikipedia, where I found the carnation answer. You might want to click on it and then bookmark it. It's a free online encyclopedia and a great place to find answers for your homework.

The family Asteraceae or, alternatively, Compositae, known as the aster, daisy or sunflower family, is a taxon of dicotyledonous flowering plants. The family name is derived from the genus Aster and refers to the star-shaped flower head of its members, epitomized well by the daisy. The Asteraceae is the second largest family in the Division Magnoliophyta, with some 1,100 genera (See List) and over 20,000 recognized species. Only the orchid family (Orchidaceae) is larger, with about 25,000 described species.

Subspecies: V. t. hortensis





The Pansy or Pansy Violet is a cultivated garden flower. It is derived from the wildflower called the Heartsease or Johnny Jump Up (Viola tricolor), and is sometimes given the subspecies name Viola tricolor hortensis. However, many garden varieties are hybrids and are referred to as Viola 脳 wittrockiana. The name "pansy" also appears as part of the common name of a number of wild flowers belonging, like the cultivated Pansy, to the violet genus Viola. One or two unrelated flowers such as the Pansy Monkeyflower also have "pansy" in their name.





I hope this will be help.
