in reply to a message by Jagoda
1) Yes, I've heard of Carl Linnaeus, but no, I wasn't aware of his ideas about race.
2) They wouldn't be to me because it seems like an obscure connection. If the connection seems strong to you, then I'd say yes.
3) No, his views don't affect my perception of the name. It's a pretty flower. The name seems a bit bland to me, but I don't dislike it for other people.
