Despite later rejecting flower-fairies #Tolkien did invent flower fairy names in Qenya:
๐ŸŒท Ailinรณne (ฤญ): a fairy who dwelt in a lily on a pool
๐ŸŒผ Nardi: a flower fairy.
๐ŸŒน Tetille: a fairy who lived in a poppy

โ€œEvil labours with vast power and perpetual success โ€“ in vain: preparing always only the soil for unexpected good to sprout in.โ€
