Ornamental Gardening, or ornamental horticulture, is that branch of horticulture concerned with cultivating plants of all kinds for show and to satisfy the eye rather than for food. It includes floriculture and also the culture of trees for shade and display. (The culture of trees on a large scale for timber and for other profitable purposes aside from ornament is forestry. The culture of trees in general is arboriculture.) Ornamental gardening includes carpet-bedding and formal gardening in general, while landscape gardening is concerned with making nature-like pictures, or at least with the general plan and setting of the place; it also comprises all that part of floriculture that aims to make grounds and gardens beautiful.
