Every time I look more and more into botany and plants, I realize just how much I don't know. So I'm calling on you good people of Lemmy to give me some resources. Plus maybe we can add them to the sidebar or a pinned post for other people who are interested.

I'm a fan of Botany in a Day. Rather than drilling down on all of the details of any particular species, the author covers the properties of a handful of families that make up almost everything we think of as plants. I.e. what is true of everything in the mint family, or the rose family.
