I have some spare time, and thought I might try my hand at improving my back
yard space. I have zero experience with plants. Is there any recommendable
book(s) that could get me started? I live in san jose, ca if that makes a
difference.

Cheaper than a book ($15/yr), and much more info available in their
databases and forums.

Depends on what you want to plant, really. Some plants are much easier to
grow, than others, obviously. Give DG a look, and see if it helps you
decide just what you'd like to grow.
