Horticulture Production is a curriculum that includes:
Greenhouse Growing & Management, Nursery Growing & Management,
and our Hydroponics Initiative. As an exciting new direction, we
have added Plant Breeding and Micro Propagation to this area of
study. This is a major for people who love growing plants!
This unique college horticulture program has benefited
from the recent construction of state-of-the-art greenhouses, installation
of a reverse-osmosis water system, and addition of a Plant Tissue
Culture Lab.
Students have an opportunity to grow various crops
including: poinsettia, Easter lilies, stargazer lilies, potted mums,
azalea, cut-flower alstromeria, orchids, african violets, bedding
plants, hanging baskets, hydroponic tomatoes, cucumbers, & gerbera
daisies.
