I’m currently writing a story and one of my characters is a butterfly. In one of the scenes, she manages to run away from a bunch of hungry lizards and hides into a flower; let’s say a Zinnia. When describing the scene I wrote: > “……she dived into the Zinnia’s head and hastily rolled into the pollen….” But then, I found that the expression “flower head” means: “A dense, compact cluster of small flowers that appear to be a single flower, as of a dandelion or clover.” Thus, I changed the word to: > “…she dived into the Zinnia’s heart and hastily rolled into the pollen….” Would it be correct?
