Okay guys, I’m really considering going to college for horticulture. Are there any horticulturists on here?
I want to know what jobs I can get involving plants.
Opinions?

I’m not a horticulturist, but I study environmental science so I’ve looked around that field.
From my limited knowledge, you could work in plant nurseries and directly take care of the plants or if you’d want to manage the actual health and productivity of plants then you could look into a horticulturist manager for commercial gardens/planter companies, there’s florist jobs, if you like science then there’s stuff like an ecologist that goes into the field and takes samples and researches them for better environmental understanding… There’s also more labory work like working in tree farms or similar farming fields to care for the plants and give advice to customers.

I'm actually planning to do a tertiary study in Horticulture and Landscaping [which includes Aboriculture, so i can climb trees :) ] next year, but i don’t know what's college 😅 [we only have JUNIOR college, Polytechnic, Institute of Technical Education for those that didn't qualify for the first two, and University once you're done with the others]
If you're just doing horticulture, you can work in national parks, nurseries, landscape companies or even the zoo as part of the horticulture team. I'm planning on lab tech for my national park :) [they do lots of orchid tissue culture]
