Hi friends, I've been hiking in and around Los Angeles for a few years now, and I recently realized I don't know the names of most of the plants I see. I'd love to be more educated.

I'll also take recommendations on plant-identifying apps. In my experience, most apps don't work that great - especially if you're deep in the San Gabriels and don't have any cell service. That's why I prefer books but always happy to learn more!
