Hey 7th,
If I have a question like that, head right to one of my 'source' books. I studied horticulture at Michigan State University, both of these books are used as 'texts'.
'Manual of Woody Landscape Plants' by Dr. Michael Dirr
(I'm not absolutely sure of the title, it's the sister book to the above)
'Manual of Herbaceous Landscape Plants' by Dr. Steven Still
Both of them make notes on where plants are from, and when they were introduced to the U.S.A.
I hope that this helps
Good Luck

Get a really good gardening book with plant descriptions. Your local nursery should have some. i have found the best books are by Sunset Magazine. I like the book because I can take it with me shopping and look things up as I find them and make sure they will work for my garden.

As a ordinary rule, attempt to adhere to community flora, attempt to recreate the community habitat. Your community AG midsection (could be on your telephone e book) is likewise a tremendous source. I in basic terms heard something interesting the different day, that spinach is between the main suitable extracters of pollution from soil! besides being yet another tremendous reason to easily consume organic and organic spinach! Its a tremendous reason to plant spinach to freshen up the soil.

Check with your local ag. extension office if your state has an Agriculture Dept.. They should have quite a lot of resources for you to check out.
