- Of the over 500 articles, more than 110 are linked directly from this page.
- Another 100 are linked in my Weed of Month collection here: Weed of the Month articles.
- An additional 55 articles were published in The Seattle Weekly from 1996 and 1997 linked here: Living City.
- Over 240 are found on my Plant of the Month web page.
- And there is a collection of 25 pages of photos of trees that thrive in Maritime Northwest's dry summers here: 2010 Trees of Dry Maritime.
In the long run, as I use my slide scanner, and digital camera, I will illustrate more of these articles, or increase the illustations. Since most of them were originally published with some form of illustration, more than 90 percent have illustrations.i |
To make these numerous articles easier for you to access and to benefit from, I intend to Index All, by topic, as well as by common and scientific names. But this project will take me a long time. Please be patient.
