In Finland we have jaakonvillakko, jalava, jalkasara, jalokiurunkannus, 
jalokuusi, jalokärsämö, jalominttu, japaninhappomarja, japaninkattara, 
japaninkellukka, japaninruttojuuri, japanintatar, jauhoesikko, jauhosavikka, 
jokapaikansara, jokileinikki, jokipaju, jouhiluikka, jouhisara, jouhivihvilä, 
jouhivita, juhannusruusu, juolavehnä, juolukka, juolukkapaju, 
juovakannusruoho, juurikas, juurtokaisla, juurtonurmikka, juurtosara, jäkki, 
jäkkärä, jänönapila, jänönputki, jänönsalaatti, jänönsara, jänönvihma, 
järvikaisla, järvikorte, järviruoko, järvisätkin, jäsenruoho, jättipalsami, 
jättiputki, jättitatar, jäykkänata, jäykkäpitkäpalko, jäykkärölli, 
jääleinikki, jäämerentähtimö and jääruoho.

Or, if you are a Swedish speaking Finn, you have japansk lykta, 
johannesnycklar, jolser, jordklöver, jordgubbe, jordranunkel, jordreva, 
jordrök, judekörs, jungfru Maries nycklar, jämstarr, jättebalsma, jättefloka, 
jätterams, jätterödsvingel, jätteslide and jättesporre.

In Norway they have jamne, japanberberiss, japanlerk, japanpestrot, 
japanspirea, jetmtlandsrapp, jemtlandsstorr, jernurt, jervrapp, 
johannesnøklar, jomfrua i det grøne, jomfrurose, jonsokblom, jonsokkol, 
jordbær, jordbærkløver, jordbærmelde, jordbærmure, jordnøtt, jordrøyk, 
jordskokk, jordskolm, jotunheimvalmue, judaspengar, junisøtmispel, 
junkerbregne, jærlupin, jærsiv, jæarsøte, jærtistel, jødekirsebær, jøkularve, 
jøkulstorr and jåblom.

These were only native or naturalized vascular plants. There are other plants 
as well.

Usenet may be useful in many things, but for this question nothing beats a 
book with an alphabetic index! (Books are a historic things where you have 
sheets of printout bound together and usually with separate cover pages which 
may be of stiffer material than the printouts). Try that next time when you 
need plants starting with some letter. Cheers,
