Horticulture involves the scientific cultivation, handling, and commercialization of fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants. Those enrolled in Horticulture programs explore plant biology, cultivation techniques, harvesting methods, quality assurance, marketing, and practical applications of horticultural products.
As urban areas expand, horticulture has evolved to emphasize landscape maintenance and the cultivation of nursery and greenhouse plants, addressing the aesthetic demands of increasingly urbanized settings.
