Slightly off topic, but I was looking at this book wondering if it would be
useful for me to give to people I meet when doing inspections of my sites.
I decided what would be more appropriate for this situation would be a
brochure that sums up like the first 150 pages of Bringing Nature Home,
more of all the reasons (economic and environmental) and the idea of
planting native rather than IDing the plants themselves. The retired NYC
cop I met probably won't be going through our site looking for autumn
olive, but maybe he will buy native. Obviously our book has an intro and
talks about the threats for each plant, but it's not quite right for this
situation. Does anyone know of something good (brief, yet comprehensive)
that is printable online? Or should we make one?
