About plant names
English common plant names are a folk record centuries deep. Many describe appearance: Bleeding Heart, Snapdragon, Lamb's Ear and Red Hot Poker need no explanation. A whole family ends in -wort (Old English for 'plant') and tells you what the herb was once used for: Lungwort for coughs, Woundwort for cuts, Motherwort for childbirth, Feverfew for fevers. Others are pure legend, like Enchanter's Nightshade, Solomon's Seal and Jacob's Ladder, or wry village humour such as Poor Man's Weatherglass, Sticky Willy and Mother-in-Law's Tongue.
Possessives are everywhere and they follow patterns worth noticing. Lady's (Mantle, Slipper, Smock, Bedstraw) usually refers to the Virgin Mary; Devil's (Bit, Claw, Ivy) marks something poisonous, invasive or oddly shaped; animal parts (Cat's Ear, Goat's Beard, Bird's-Foot, Adder's Tongue) describe leaves and flowers. Toxic plants get sinister names on purpose: Wolfsbane, Deadly Nightshade, Henbane and Hemlock warned children away long before Latin labels.
The list here is entirely real, drawn from British and North American wildflowers, cottage-garden favourites, houseplants and herbalist standbys. It also takes in ferns, grasses, cacti, succulents, climbers, pond and seashore plants, and Australian, New Zealand and South African natives. Use it to name a fictional apothecary's stock, to give a witch's garden authenticity, to write believable botanical dialogue, or just to find a name for the pothos on your windowsill.
How to choose plant names
- Group by function when worldbuilding: -wort names for healing herbs, -bane names for poisons, and saintly names for plants tied to a holy day (Michaelmas Daisy, Christmas Rose).
- For a witch's or apothecary's shelf, mix familiar poisons (Wolfsbane, Henbane) with obscure real names (Herb Paris, Bogbean) so readers can't tell what's invented.
- Naming a houseplant? Match personality to the common name: a Prayer Plant that folds at night, a Cast Iron Plant that survives neglect.
- Many plants have several folk names (Bindweed and Morning Glory, Kingcup and Marsh Marigold); pick the one whose sound fits your setting.
- Check toxicity before using a name for a pet, baby or edible product; Belladonna is beautiful but literally deadly nightshade.
Frequently asked questions
Are these real plant names?
Yes. The names here are genuine common names for flowers, herbs, shrubs, trees, ferns, grasses, cacti and houseplants used in English-speaking gardening and herbal tradition.
Why do so many plant names end in -wort?
Wort comes from the Old English 'wyrt', meaning plant or root. Herbalists attached it to the ailment or body part a plant was thought to treat, giving names like Lungwort, Liverwort and Woundwort.
Can I use these names for a fictional world or product?
Common plant names are public domain, so you can use them freely in fiction and games. For a product or brand, run a trademark search since names like Snapdragon are already used by companies.
What are good plant names for a garden-witch or herbalist character?
Choose names with folklore built in: Enchanter's Nightshade, Angelica, Rue, Mugwort, Self-Heal, Eyebright and Solomon's Seal all have long histories in charms and remedies.
