Help Yourself-Take Courses
It's possible for you to partake in courses for such things
as a florist or landscape nurseryman. You don't even have to
take the courses in a classroom setting, if you don't want to.
You can take these types of courses online or through the
mail.
Most every university offers these types of courses if you
do want to take them in a classroom setting. As mentioned, if
you do not wish to take them in a classroom setting, many very
well recognized schools will teach you online or through the
mail. By taking such types of courses you'll be broadening your
horizons and knowledge of plants.
These schools have prominent horticulturists on their
staffs, and they stand ready to help with all of your "growing
and selling" problems. One of the landscape schools is now
adding to its curriculum a course in greenhouse growing and
management. My brother, a major in the United States Army, will
retire at the age of forty-three. Looking ahead, he and his
wife took a florist course. Upon retirement, they will build
and stock a small greenhouse and open a florist
shop.
