Horticulture Highlights CD Grows in 2008

LITTLE ROCK - Bring Janet Carson, Dr. Jim Robbins and Arkansas' other gardening experts into your home this holiday season with the expanded 2008 edition of "Horticulture Highlights" CD.

The Horticulture Highlights CD now includes:

  • An electronic version of the new book "Arkansas Common Landscape Problems"
  • New fact sheets on lawn care
  • A photo-illustrated plant database of more than 100 Arkansas shrub varieties
  • Plant disease videos
  • New fruit fact sheets

The CD also includes those favorite features that have made the CD as essential to hundreds of Arkansas gardeners as their trowel or gloves. There are:

  • Hundreds of Janet Carson Q and A's
  • More than 400 "Plant of the Week" articles and photos
  • More than 150 publications, including publications on insect control, plant diseases and weeds
  • Tomato and vegetable information including control of disease and insects
  • A plant disease image library containing over 160 images
  • A tree Identification Key and database

Even with all the new features, the "Horticulture Highlights" CD stays at the 2007 price - available for $11 from your county office of the University of Arkansas Cooperative Extension Service.

The CD is also available online at www.uaex.edu. Shipping, handling and local taxes apply.

For more information, contact your county extension office.

The Cooperative Extension Service is part of the U of A Division of Agriculture.
