Great class room text 
Great book for classes on Greenhouse Production. Debbie Hamrick has written a great book that is a part of my horticulture class's Greenhouse Production curriculum. The book is presented and arranged by genus name, which is very helpful to a budding horticulturist. It offers detailed information on the production annuals, perennials, pot foliage plants, flowering potted plants, herbs, and vegetable bedding plants that are grown most in greenhouse production. Ms. Hamrick has presented great resources in this book to help growers decide on what to grow, tips about temperature, media, plant nutrition, irrigation, water quality, light, crop scheduling, and growth regulators. The details on propagation, growing, pest and disease control, troubleshooting, and post-harvest care have been very helpful since my class has grown Easter Lilies and Chrysanthemums.
