Written from the point of view of the horticulturalist, this comprehensive introduction to horticulture as a science, art, and business explores the four general areas of horticulture- ornamental horticulture, fruit culture, vegetable culture, and landscape architecture-and covers all the essential principles and practices of horticulture pertaining to indoor and outdoor production. The emphasis throughout is on the underlying science-including current technology-and how it is applied in practical horticulture.
