- AbundantEasy to find; often a dominant over large areas.
CommonEasy to find; seldom a dominant over large areas.
ScatteredNot extremely difficult to find, but more so than common; often thick with patchy distribution or sparse with good distribution; not dominant in the plant community
ScarceDifficult to find; often found in relatively small pockets; not well distributed.
- UnknownPlants have been identified on the NFWU, but the authors are unfamiliar with them; most of these plants would probably be categorized as scarce.
