• No Star indicates a common and widely distributed plant like Marsh Marigold
• * for a plant that is only locally common like Grass of Parnassus
• ** for a scarce plant, which usually grow in limited areas like Crested Cow-wheat, but may be thinly scattered over a wide area like Narrow Helleborine
• *** are for real rarities, growing in only a few places, and usually rare even there like Cheddar Pink.
