Sustainable Horticulture is increasingly important to everyone. This website
contains articles related to sustaining our environment through sustaining our
horticulture.

We live in an increasingly urbanized world, where open or green space is becoming
less common and more highly valued. Landscapes provide an extension of the livable
environment where people interact with their world and each other. Unfortunately,
many landscapes are neither well managed nor sustainable, with poor plant choices,
site conditions, and little or no maintenance. A variety of problems make such
places unhealthy or unsafe for plants, humans, and animals. For instance, invasive
species are often planted in landscapes, where they out compete more beneficial
species, reducing diversity and providing less food and habitat for other organisms.


In urban areas, heavy traffic, combined with a sea of concrete, leads to soil
compaction, creating an environment where existing plants cannot obtain sufficient
oxygen or water to survive and seedlings cannot germinate. Fertilizers and
pesticides are often applied in excessive quantities, which can lead to such
environmental disasters as eutrophication of water bodies, destruction of salmon
habitat, and poisoning of a variety of organisms. Unsustainable landscapes may also
require more frequent weeding, watering, pruning, and other high-maintenance
activities to keep them functional. Our website
http://www.sustainablehorticulture.com provides related information.

Through this page, we hope to help visitors to recognize and apply sustainable
management practices as preferable alternatives to current practices. Sustainable or
ecologically friendly landscapes, whether in public greenspaces or privately owned,
consume less water, have reduced needs for fertilizer and pesticides, and avoid the
use of non-native, invasive species.

We also review articles for acceptance on our website. After viewing our website,
