About this word search

Daisy is thought to come from the Old English for day's eye, because the flower opens in the morning and closes in the evening. It is one of several names on this list with a story behind it, along with Buttercup and Sunflower.

Words lie across, down or on a slant in this fourteen by fourteen grid, always forwards. Carnation and Sunflower are good long anchors. Iris and Lily are short and quick to miss.

The puzzle suits Mother's Day, a plant lesson or an afternoon at the garden centre. Afterwards, children can sort the flowers by colour, or by which ones grow from a bulb and which from a seed.
