Hi Theresa,

I got a bunch of books from the library to review, then ordered the one I liked
best: Rodale's "The Organic Gardener's Handbook of Natural Insect and Disease
Control: A Complete Problem-Solving Guide to Keeping Your Garden & Yard Healthy."
I ordered it through Amazon.com for about $14.

It lists most common plants and the things that might affect them, has a detailed
section on insects both good and bad (with photos), and a diseases section.

Hope this helps.
