Favorite references

This page features some references I have found helpful as I attempt to grow more and more plants from seeds or cuttings. If applicable, the notes for each entry contains links for buying the book (an affiliate link in bookshop.org that sends me a tidbit of money if you use it or another store if not carried there). For books, the reference itself contains a link to the WorldCat entry, so you can find what library near you has it. Some used bookstores online that I buy from include Powell’s and Better World Books.

Help! How do I start?
