    Landscape Management

    Most Americans place a high value on landscaping, green space, and water amenities. Concern for the environment and protection of natural resources, particularly water and soil, is of critical importance to the quality of life in Florida. Research is needed to provide landscape contractors, architects, government agencies, and consumers with solid recommendations for selecting, establishing and maintaining trees, shrubs, and other landscape plants in an environmentally sound manner.
