Thanks for sharing items on your short list azpiper! All items very wise indeed.

The tip on the book is very much appreciated. What vendor did you get it from if I may ask?
Or if you prefer just give the author(s) name so I can track it down.

I've been looking for one like that myself as well as a good field guide on what plant to avoid (yikes!).

What I've learned so far about plant field guides is that you want them to be pocket size or at least small enough to fit easily into a backpack
AND with photos of the plants in their natural environment being most critical.

Thanks again for bringing the plant guide back to the front of my mind.

So many bases to keep covered! Personally, I'm having a blast with this.
It feels great to be working toward a solid goal rather than talking about it or speculating on woo after woo.
