- Landscape Plant Manager Version 1.91
-
- Thank you for obtaining a copy of the Landscape Plant Manager. I
- hope the program will be of use to you in your work.
-
- The Landscape Plant Manager is a plant selection program
- developed for use by students in horticulture curriculums,
- members of the landscape industry and homeowners.
-
- Through various menus within the program, one can store and
- retrieve information on plants used in the landscape. The main
- feature of the Landscape Plant Manager is the ability to find
- plants in a data file based on 1 to 24 different criteria
- including such characteristics as form, height, spread and
- hardiness zone. Depending on memory and disk storage capacity, a
- Landscape Plant Manager data file can hold from 500 to 5000
- different landscape plants.
-
- This shareware software currently requires an IBM PC or true
- compatible computer with a minimum of 256 kilobytes of memory and
- one floppy disk drive. A memory capacity of 256 kilobytes or
- larger with a hard disk or larger capacity floppy is preferred.
-
- If you do find the program useful, I hope you can make a $50.00
- donation to the Agricultural Technical Institute/Ohio State
- University Development fund. Your donation will go towards the
- purchase of hardware and software for use in teaching and
- training our students about computer technology and use in
- horticulture. Some of the money will also be used to further
- enhance the Landscape Plant Manager and to develop other programs
- for use in the landscape industry.
