What is a good identification book?

[dria]

I want to identify and catalog all the plants and weeds that I have on my property. Does anyone know a good field book to use for identifying plants, including weeds?

I do not know of any right off hand but I would suggest that you find one that is specific to your area. That way you do not have to wade through a ton of irrelevant information.

Here's PDF file that has some plant info. I don't know if it has weeds though: http://www.knps.org/newsletters/Summer2010v25n2.pdf

If you need more info., go to your nearest extension office and they should be able to help you.

Hey, thanks for the link. I was looking over it and it does look like it might be pretty helpful. I can't wait to figure out everything that grows in my yard. I already found out that one thing I thought was a weed has medicinal purposes.
