5.0 out of 5 stars Nursery Management: Administration & Culture (4th ed), November 8, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Nursery Management: Administration and Culture (4th Edition) (Hardcover)
This book is one of the required texts for a 200 series Nursery Management class in a local community college's Horticulture program. Not only have I found this book to be deeply informational, but I've found topics here which I believed could not be put in words - only demonstrated. It's an excellent investment that will re numerate it's practitioners many times over.
