It's a big topic. In what way is he interested?

The science? Practical gardening? Living off the land? Heritage gardening? Permaculture? Hydroponics? Habitat design? Ganja production? Deep-bed intensive or container gardening? Plant remedies? Natural dyes and fibers? Just a good book about plants in general for identification purposes?

He doesn't know yet  ;).  Right now, he's playing with pots and planters.  He hasn't a clue as to some of the plants he's trying to grow.  That's why I'm looking for a plant bible, so to speak.  He knows he enjoys working with the plants, but cannot identify any of them.  Misdoubt that he'll ever get into farming, but he's very much interested in what I call patio gardening, at least for the moment.  Prolly never get past container gardening, but if he's having fun doing it, I'd like to support him.  He's taking a lot of pride in this, and I'd like to encourage that, particularly considering the local educational system.

Folk,

My neighbor's son ... my ersatz son  :-\ :P ... has an interest in plants.  He's about to turn eighteen (18), and I'd like to get him something akin to a plant bible.  A decent how-to website would work, but I'd prefer something with pages that can be turned, have images - you know, a real book  :huh:.  Now, I'm not much on gardening.  As mentioned in a commercial I've seen recently, my house is where plant-kind com to die.  My thumb is somewhere between brown and black  :(.  I figure that at least one (1) of you has a botanical bent, so I'd like to ask that person for advice on tomes or sites, the more extensive, the better.
