Floriculture: From Greenhouse Production to Floral Design is a comprehensive book based on the floriculture industry. It takes the reader beyond the most basic levels of horticulture. It includes in one volume all phases of floriculture and eliminates the need for two separate books. The first 13 chapters are devoted to the greenhouse industry and the production of floriculture crops. The final 12 chapters shift from production to the use of floriculture crops in the floral design industry. - Preface.
