Arboriculture

This course outlines basic terminology used in arboriculture, the principles of installation, and care and maintenance of trees and shrubs in the landscape. It also provides "how to" information in these areas. Finally, the effect of the environment on growth and development of woody plants is addressed. There is no final exam in this course.

It is recommended that students complete Applied Botany and Soils for Horticulture before registering in Arboriculture. It is also recommended to have prior or concurrent knowledge in Woody Landscape Plants and Safe Work/Pesticide Application.
