Environmental horticulture - also referred to as landscape horticulture
and amenity horticulture - is the umbrella term for the horticulture that
we encounter in our daily lives. This includes parks, botanic gardens,
sports facilities, landscape gardens, roundabouts, cemeteries, shopping
centres - any public space which has grass, planting and trees.
This book reflects contemporary thinking and is supported by scientific evidence to show the role, value and application of horticulture in the landscape. The discipline of environmental horticulture, its importance and impact on the wider environment is explored in the first part, whilst the second part covers practical horticultural management of different categories of environmental horticulture.
