Been working on projects lately that have me dipping deeply into on-line resources. That got me thinking it might be fun and useful to gather the wealth of local plant information and imagery created by John Bradford, who is working with me now on a tree and shrub photo guidebook. There’s something for every native plant enthusiast below: photos, online class, grasses and sedges, on-demand wildflower guidebook, and huge set of photo guides to local natural areas, by far the best listing anywhere (IMHO).
1. Plant images arranged by plant families: https://www.flickr.com/photos/64527562@N04/albums
2. Online native plants class, always available: http://nativeplantclass.weebly.com
3. High-resolution interactive images, fun!: http://gigapan.com/profiles/JohnB/gigapans
4. Grasses, sedges, rushes: http://floridagrasses.org
5. Print on demand wildflower identification book: https://www.blurb.com/b/3796141-guide-to-the-native-plants-of-florida-s-treasure-c
6. Photo guides to natural areas:
