Research
My research involves the cut flower industry in North Carolina. Projects include 1) a production and marketing survey of the NC cut flower industry; 2) evaluation of major cut flower crops grown for yield, flower quality, pest and disease constraints, and vase life; 3) evaluation of weed management recommendations and practices; and 4) establishment of an information portal to serve as a clearinghouse of information for the North Carolina cut flower industry.
