Synopsis
The Science Of Horticulture: Including A Practical System Arranged On Demonstrative Physiological Principles; Illustrated By Sketches, In Twelve Plates. With A Commentary On The Works Of Bradley, Hitt, Miller, Forsyth, Knight, Kirwan, Sir Humphry Davy, And Mes. Ibbotson. Joseph Hayward. This work, a foundational text in horticultural theory, presents a rigorous move to transform practical gardening into a demonstrative science. It begins with a dedication to the Horticultural Society of London and a Prefatory Explanations and Remarks that critique earlier authorities such as Bradley, Miller, Hitt, Forsyth, Knight, Kirwan, and Davy, proposing a system grounded in original principles and demonstrative experiments. The book systematically examines roots, plant nutrition, soils, sap, leaves, and the laws of nature governing growth, then applies these principles to pruning, training, and managing fruit trees in nurseries, walls, espaliers, and standard forms. It includes plates illustrating methods by Hitt, Forsyth, and Knight, and culminates in a detailed Deduction and Application of the Laws of Nature for fruit-tree management, alongside a prospectus for establishing a public demonstrative garden by subscription. This volume positions horticulture as an empirical science closely linked to chemistry and plant physiology.
