Horticulture PAC
How important is horticulture in your community? In the Horticulture PAC, students use interactive software to find information to help them determine the impact of horticulture on their own state’s economy. Students research different types of commercial horticulture such as nursery operations, plant growing operations, and seed producing operations. They also learn about various types of plants, their characteristics, and how they are produced and reproduced. Using interactive videos and software, students become familiar with different types of greenhouses and their functions. They also identify the principles that landscape designers follow in creating a design, and they use landscaping software to help them translate landscapes into scaled drawings. Students will follow the complete process of landscaping from the design stage to installation and maintenance. They identify the principles that landscape designers follow in creating a design, as well as the different categories of landscaping plants. With the help of landscaping software, students translate landscapes into scaled drawings and recognize how computers help solve design problems when changes need to be made.
