A serious book for amateur and seasoned gardeners.
Written to RHS specifications and mapped to Level 2 syllabuses by a team of lecturers and examiners.
Principles of Horticulture Level 2 is ideal for those who want to develop their passion for gardening. Whether it’s alongside a part time RHS course or just to expand their general knowledge of the subject, this book will be an essential resource.
It’s mapped to the Level 2 syllabuses and explains the principles that underpin the cultivation of flowers, fruits, vegetables, turf and ornamental planting outdoors and under protected culture. The range of plants used by gardeners is also explored through their origins, the climates and habitats from which they come, plant tolerance and the plant hunters involved.
Principles of Horticulture Level 3 is also available for anyone studying for higher level qualifications or those wanting to develop their skills further. These are the perfect books for horticulture students and gardeners who need to know more than the basics and require more of a practical academic reference than a colourful guidebook.
