Also, whether at the Market or at home, here are a few books I've found particularly useful when growing, researching, and/or identifying native plants:

---. Native Trees, Shrubs, and Vines: A Guide to Using, Growing, and Propagating North American Woody Plants. Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 2002. Print.
