Book excerpt: Grow Woodies and Harvest profits for Decades Woody ornamentals, also known as woody cuts, or simply "woodies," are trees and shrubs whose branches are harvested and sold for floral arrangements and craft products such as wreaths. Most woodies have colorful stems, like Red Twig Dogwood, unusual stems like Curly Willow or attractive berries, buds or flowers. Unlike annual plants like flowers and vegetables, woodies can be harvested over and over again for many years. Most woodies have a lifespan of 20-60 years. New plants are produced from cuttings, so it's easy to replace older plants or produce potted woodies for sale to local buyers or the local garden center. Woodies can also provide a year-round income, as different species are ready to harvest during all four seasons. Some of the well-known woodies include holly, nandina and wax myrtle in winter, pussy willows, forysthia and witch hazel in spring, smoke tree, nine bark, hydrangea and filberts in summer and boxwood and beautyberry in the fall. In This Book, You'll Discover: Top 22 woody ornamentals for new growers. Top 10 woodies that produce up to 100 stems per plant. How to pick the best woodies for your local climate and soil. Growing, harvesting and marketing instructions for each species. 6 best "value-added" products to double or triple your profits. Wholesale sources for hundreds of hard-to-find cultivars.

Each is written by leading international experts. Sustainable use of resources and careful conservation are critically essential for the continuation of life on this Planet. Achieving this is where horticulture, natural flora and fauna and the environment interact in achieving sustainable development. Horticulture is the fundamental partner of ecological and environmental science and provides an understanding of eco-system services. Live plant networks are essential for rural and urban life. They are integral parts of natural communities, the context of historic and modern architecture and a means for rejuvenating cities and uniting communities. Plants provide urban, peri-urban and rural employment, business and tourism opportunities, leisure, rest and relaxation. These facets of Environmental Horticulture are clearly described in this book.

Download or read book Nursery Manual for Native Plants written by R. Kasten Dumroese and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2001, the Forest Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), through its Virtual Center for Reforestation, Nurseries, and Genetics Resources (RNGR), invited Native Americans from across the United States to attend the Western Forest and Conservation Nursery Association annual meeting. About 25 tribal members, representing 20 tribes, attended the meeting at Fort Lewis College in Durango, Colorado. The following year, a similar meeting was held in Olympia, Washington, and tribal members initiated a Tribal Nursery Council and requested that RNGR facilitate the organization. During 2003, RNGR requested information from 560 tribes across the United States, seeking specific information on tribes' needs for native plants, facilities, training, and so on. Results from the responding 77 tribes were incorporated into the Tribal Nursery Needs Assessment. Based on the results of that questionnaire, and input from tribal members attending the 2003 Intertribal Nursery Council meeting in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, it was agreed that a nursery handbook was needed. That fall, planning began for writing the manual, loosely based on Agriculture Handbook 674, The Container Tree Nursery Manual, but with special attention to the uniqueness of Native American cultures.
