Plant families

[Dixana]

And perhaps a few more considering I've never heard of several of those.
The longer I'm on this site the more I feel like a gardening/plant noob. We're going to the library this afternoon (I've been putting off due to a bad experience with this one many years ago. Maybe I'll share that story elsewhere...) and I'm going to check out every book I can get my hands on about gardening.
I have to be honest though, given my inquisitive nature reading will more than likely bring on more questions than less Maybe they just won't be such naive questions.

We are all helping each other advance our knowledge, increasing the knowledge and wisdom of the community, a wonderful thing! I had been gardening and reading about gardening for twenty years when I came here and I have still learned a ton in my year and a half here!

I have to agree. I've learned more in several months on this forum than I have from several garden books. It's just hard to beat first-hand knowledge .

NOT several months-- a YEAR; you've been hanging around here a year now! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

We need to have something like (virtual) one year pins, two years, five years..... to hand out!

Thanks for noticing, RG; I just looked and realized it myself . Time sure flies when you're talking about gardening, doesn't it?

I like the idea of a pin, maybe a little crop icon near your avatar. There could be a different one for each year.

Anyway, to get back on topic, here is a helpful table.
