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.

specific parts of a plant and classification of parts

Definitely check out Plant Systematics for really in depth discussion of this. Additionally, someone sent me a copy of Systematics, Evolution, and Biogeography of Compositae which I'm happy to share. These are both dense, though, just to warn you.

I don't have much of anything on my shelves regarding grafting, but would recommend Dirr's Reference Manual of Woody Plant Propagation, the American Horticultural Society's Plant Propagation, and USDA's The Woody Plant Seed Manual for some good cultivation / propagation information
