The Urban Horticulture Institute’s mission is to improve quality of life by enhancing the functions of plants within urban ecosystems. Our program integrates plant stress physiology, horticultural science, plant ecology and soil science, and applies them to four broad areas:

The selection, evaluation and propagation of superior plants with improved tolerance of biotic and abiotic stresses, and enhanced functional uses in the disturbed landscape.

Developing improved technologies for assessing and ameliorating site limitations to improve plant growth and development.

Developing improved transplant technologies to insure the successful establishment of plants in the urban environment.

Working with municipalities to assess and manage their urban tree resources while applying appropriate technologies.
