The Ornamental
Program at Clemson University is a multidisciplinary
group of research, extension, and teaching personnel working together on the
Clemson campus and throughout the state of South Carolina for the benefit of
the turfgrass and ornamental horticulture industry. Led by faculty
having expertise in horticulture, plant pathology, forestry, entomology, plant
physiology, economics, toxicology, biological sciences, and agricultural engineering,
the program is supported by an excellent staff of technicians, administrative
personnel, and students, all dedicated to the success of the program. The teaching
program is centrally located on the Clemson campus and extends statewide via
Clemson Extension Service and other avenues.
The mission of Clemson University's Department of Horticulture
is to promote personal and professional growth through the
discovery, communication, and application of horticultural
experiences, knowledge, and scholarship. Our work fosters
environmental stewardship while improving economic wellbeing,
health, and quality of life for all.
