The Department of Urban Horticulture and Design’s\u00a0Teaching Gardens Database<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0is now live.<\/p>\n

The database – which includes contributions by Urban Horticulture and Design faculty; Dr. Emily Fogarty, GIS program director; and student Michael Naughton – celebrates and documents the gardens, designers, images of the past, plants, and stories of the many gardens of the Robert F. Ench Teaching Gardens. It was created to help students, faculty, administration, and community members learn the many facets of the gardens.<\/p>\n

Among the database’s features is a locator for trees, shrubs, grasses, plants, structures, and the various gardens that make up the Teaching Gardens.<\/p>\n

The Teaching Gardens Database has already won awards, from the Long Island Nursery and Landscape Association, and the New York State Flower Industries. It has also received FSC grants.<\/p>\n

The Robert F. Ench Teaching Gardens cover four-plus acres of theme gardens, or “garden rooms,” some of which go back to the 1930s. As part of their course requirements, horticulture students working in the gardens have laid out beds and borders, dug and prepared soil, planted and pruned.<\/p>\n
