Ornamental Horticulture Science, Operations, and Management5
This is a great book, I have it because it is used as a textbook for my Introduction to Horticulture class. It is easy to read and very informative for those just beginning to learn about this field. I enjoyed reading it so much that I read the entire thing cover to cover, even though the entire text was not required for our one semester class. I would recommend this book to anyone desiring to learn and enjoy the reading at the same time.
