You'll pick it up in no time.
So you just take the guide and then walk round and try to i.d. it? Learning of plants is one of my biggest dreams, I fantasize about how much I'll know, but I get so overwhelmed and discouraged whenever I start at the sheer multitude of facts and so I stay dumb af even to this day
