Re: Ref Books to Learn Which Weeds are Which???


Wendy,
    An exceptionally valuable reference that I use at the Garden Center is
Weeds of the West. Not only does it have a great color photos of the mature
weed in all its glory, in many cases it has a seedling photo, or a closeup
of a definig characteristic such as the auricles of grasses(area where the
blades join the main stem...sometimes its fuzzy, loops around the stem, no
fuzz, etc) many weeds in this reference I am sure you will see in you
area....even bermuda.

betsy
evergreen co
30 degrees at 7am and a dusting of snow.
