iPREFACEfpThe horticulture industry is an important part of our daily lives.Each day, we encounter the many aspects of horticultural products andservices. For example, fruits and vegetables provide critical portions ofour diets. Green plants and flowers are grown and sold for their beauty,for use in home decorating, for making places of work more attractive,and for use in recreational areas. Turigrass is used on lawns and forsodded areas, such as golf courses. Ornamental trees and shrubs are usedto landscape residential and commercial buildings, and to provideadditional privacy.As the demand for horticultural products and services hasincreased, the need for trained horticulturists to assume jobs and careersin horticulture has also increased. Horticulture industries and businesseshave grown enormously and these firms need employees to produce and toprovide related services. For example, floriculturists grow and marketflowers and foliage plants. These floral products are used for weddingsand funerals as well as floral displays in the home. In conjunction withproviding these products, the floricultudsts will often supervisearranging of flowers and floral displays on the premises. Another exampleof horticultural service jobs involves landscape maintenance firms thatprovide services to homeowners and businesses by installing andmaintaining landscapes. These firms' employees assist in the landscapeinstallation and maintenance.This guide is to develop competencies needed for employment inhorticultural occupations and for advanced technical training. The guide isflexible and may be changed to meet the needs of the local schoolsituation. However, competencies in Horticulture I- 6841 are basic toentry level preparation and should be mastered before students progressto Horticulture 11- 6842.Each student should be involved in supervised agriculturalexperiences related to each unit of instruction. Also, leadership abilitiesneeded for success in ornamental horticulture are developed by the FFA asan integral part of the instructional program.

IiiACKNOWLEDGEMENTSWe are grateful to the following business/industry DACUM committeemembers for identifying the skills needed in horticultural occupations inNorth Carolina:Jerry BrayboyVoluntary Purchasing Groups, Inc.Zebu Ion, NC.Wayne HarmonSouthern States Cooperative, Inc.Raleigh, NC.Don HelmboldFoxfire Country Club and ResortPinehurst, NC.William Wilder, Jr.North Carolina Nurseryman's AssociationNorth Carolina Landscape Contractor's Assoc.Knightdale, NC.Tom BlandBland's Landscaping, Cary, NC.Thurman Mc LambMc Lamb's Nursery, Inc., Angier, NC.Al NewberryTarheel Turf Company, Princeton.

iiiINTRODUCTION TO THE CURRICULUM GUIDEThe curriculum guide is designed to be used by teachers of HorticultureI and Horticulture II courses in North Carolina. The guide is not asubstitute for lesson plans , but rather an instructional planning tool toassist (he teacher in delivering instruction for Horticulture students.The course design, explained on page one of the guide, indicates thatthe horticulture courses are to be taught after a student completesIntroduction to Agriculture and Natural Resources. Horticulture I , No.6841, contains five broad units of instruction. A list of the 39competencies included in Horticulture I may be found on page 3 of theGuide. Units of instruction and competencies found in Horticulture I arebasic to the understanding of content found in Horticulture II.Horticulture II, No. 6842, contains eight broad units of instruction and 44competencies.For each unit of instruction, beginning on page nine, the following areidentified: Course name and number, Teaching Unit Title, approximateteaching time, Competency Statement, and Instructional Objectives. Thearea under Test Item Numbers has been left blank so that teachers maywrite in appropriate information as the test banks are developed andrevised. This page is followed by the Content Outline, TeachingActivities, and Resources.The Content Outline is a suggested outline for the teacher. lrs purposeis to give the teacher some ideas and structurti for teaching relative tothe competencies. As agriculture and technology changes, the teacherneeds to adapt to the changes by revising the content.Teaching and learning activities are also suggested ideas for invoMngstudents in the learning process. These have been suggested by teachersin the Horticulture area. They are not conclusive so teachers shouldinclude additional activities to fit their unique situations.A Reference list is included at the end of the Guide. The list includestitles and/or vendors names for. text books, slide sets, filmstrips, videotapes, periodical, and computer programs. Again, as agriculture andhorticulture changes, additional information should be sought. TheAgricultural Extension Service, land grant universities, and business andindustry are excellent sources for current information.
