Yellow-flowered mustards spread across the fields every spring.
Note
A plural that appears only where the mass noun breaks into kinds. Mustard on a plate is uncountable, so the -s form signals varieties of the condiment or species of the plant. The chemical sense counts naturally: there mustard names one compound in a family of blistering agents, so the plural counts compounds used in warfare and chemotherapy. For salad leaves or crab tomalley, the singular is the usual choice.
