Plant Propagation - EFB 437/637 Chapter One Content Page

There's a lot of interesting historical plant propagation-related information in this chapter (at least to me).

However, the main thing I want you to take away from this chapter is an awareness of the various plant propagation-related organizations and resources. Even more than any of the specific concepts or techniques introduced over the course of the semester, it's critically important that you leave this class with foundational knowledge of where to turn for reliable, research-based information.
