Overview

The Floriculture Career Development Event (CDE) builds skills that are important to careers in greenhouse and field production management, garden center and floral shop management and floral design management. Students who excel show a well-rounded knowledge of horticulture, the cultivation of flowering and ornamental plants and the floral industry.

This four-person team event is designed to create an interest in career preparation for all current and future aspects of the floriculture industry through leadership development and hands on technical skill development using industry standards that are delivered through the agricultural education curriculum. Individual members contribute to the team’s effort by completing events such as a general floriculture examination, an identification of plant materials and equipment, and a problem-solving practicum.
