I shall have to have a browse around that site, it will be interesting to see how many of those plants are familiar to me, albeit I guess with different names. We have some peculiar, if at times rather poetic, names for them too e.g."Jack-go-to-bed-at-noon" (The flowers only fully open on sunny mornings) is one of my favourites, also "Venus's Looking-glass"
Oh and there is 'Bloody Cranesbill', the name refers to the colour of the flowers, not to what you say if you see it growing in your crops! not that it is much of a threat anyway.
