You could say they're all doctors however you cant say they're all arborists.
What you have is gardeners, horticulturists, landscapers, nurserymen etc. No way would I think a nurseryman is an arborist.
The common theme they can share is horticulture ... not arboriculture. |
gotta disagree with ya there. you dont have to climb and rig to be an arborist. someone who grows grafts,plants,fertilizes ect is definatly an arborist. their spectrum of the field is just as important as yours. if they dont grow em you cant care for as many of em. im sure there is a wealth of info about young trees in their early stages that most cert arbs dont know
