Train to be a Nursery Manager at Home
 
This is a comprehensive course that builds strengths in management, science, plant propagation and growing a large variety of different plants.
 
It emphasises plant identification knowledge as the cornerstone of all good horticulture.
Every plant species is different, not only in how it looks, but how it is propagated and cultured. A good nurseryman needs to intimately know hundreds, if not thousands of different plants, and this is a course that gives you that knowledge and a solid foundation to continue growing that knowledge throughout your career.
