Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The Journal of Environmental Horticulture focuses on research related to ornamental plant production, including the evaluation of alternative growing media, the use of reclaimed water in production systems, and the environmental impacts of nursery operations. It also covers topics such as DNA barcoding for plant identification, managing invasive plant species, and developing protocols for plant regeneration. Additionally, the journal addresses weed management strategies, the impact of environmental factors on plant growth and survival, and the assessment of damage to nursery trees from insect oviposition. Research also extends to breeding for reduced plant fertility to mitigate invasiveness and understanding pollinator interactions with ornamental plants.
