more words - love lilies

[darkoshi]

so, according to my dictionary, the adverb for lovely seems to be "lovelily". (like a flower, love-lily!) i can't recall ever having seen that word used in writing before. it looks quite odd. and sounds quite odd.

on the same page, are several lovelily named plants...

lovage (this one, i've at least heard of before)
love apple (formerly, the tomato. also, a tropical plant with tomato-like fruit)
love-entangle (aka "stonecrop")
lovegrass (one variety is called weeping lovegrass)
love-in-idleness (a wild pansy)
love-in-a-mist (also called devil-in-the-bush)
love-lies-bleeding (has spikes of crimson flowers)
