Hebrew Language Flowers of Israel

[Channalee]

I recently read that Israel's national flower had been changed from the רקפת (rakefet/cyclamen) to the כלנית (kalanit/anemone).  Here is the article in Hebrew:  https://www.ynet.co.il/articles/0,7340,L...84,00.html
 
Question for Israeli citizens:  Was there a lot of interest among Israelis for the vote for a national flower?  I personally find it interesting, because I like flower gardens.  It was fun to see what the popular flowers of Israel happen to be by reading about the runners-up in the National Flower competition.
 
Question for Hebrew speakers:  I tried Google translate on the article, because I'm not exactly conversant in Hebrew.  I found the Google translation to be a little unsatisfactory in regard to the flower names (and, of course, the Google translation didn't provide transliterations).  So I decided to take a stab at it, myself.  Can you please make any necessary corrections to the list below?  Thanks!

I especially love how so many flower names in Hebrew also happen to be in use as Hebrew names for girls:
 
Admona, Admonit
Chatzav (also a boy's name)
Chavatzelet
Iris, Irit
Kalanit
Narkis, Narkisit
Rakefet
Shoshan, Shoshana, Shoshi
