This category is primarily for articles whose title (and subject) is a [[common name]] for a plant that does not correspond to a single scientifically recognized species (or other taxonomic rank). There should generally be some shared characteristic that can be discussed in an article (e.g. [[cardamom]] is a spice derived from multiple species; [[tree fern]] describes large ferns with a tree-like trunk).

In addition, there are subcategories for ''redirects'' from common names to [[Binomial nomenclature|scientific names]], and for ''set index articles'' (simple lists of different plants known by the same common name).

For disambiguation pages covering a term used as a common name used for several plants see [[:Category:Plant common name disambiguation pages]]. The contents of [[:Category:Redirects from scientific names of plants]] are redirects from the currently accepted scientific name of a plant to an article titled by a common name.
