List of plants by common name

The common names of plants often vary from region to region, which is why most plant encyclopedias refer to plants using their scientific names: binomials, or "Latin" names.

Many plants have several common names, and many common names refer to several distinct plants. This list includes garden plants as well as weeds.

This is not a complete list. Most of the common names here so far are regional names in use in North America.
