Professional Plant Identification Training for Hawaiʻi’s Green Industry

Strengthen your team’s expertise with a focused Plant ID training designed specifically for Hawaiʻi’s landscape and horticulture professionals. This session delivers the technical knowledge crews need to accurately identify the plants they work with every day—native, ornamental, invasive, and everything in between.

Participants will learn to distinguish species by leaf structure, growth habit, texture, stem characteristics, and environmental indicators, improving accuracy in maintenance, installation, diagnosis, and client communication.

What Your Team Will Gain:

• Confident identification of Hawaiʻi’s most commonly used landscape plants
• Recognition of high‑risk invasive species and regulated plants
• Improved accuracy in pruning, fertilization, and pest/disease reporting
• Stronger communication with clients, inspectors, and supervisors
• Reduced job‑site errors and improved overall service quality

Ideal for: Landscape contractors, maintenance crews, arborists, nursery staff, HOA service providers, municipal teams, and green‑industry professionals seeking continuing education.

Invest in the skills that elevate your team’s professionalism and credibility. Plant knowledge is the foundation of quality landscape work in Hawaiʻi.

This event is limited to 24 participants.  Registration will open to guests 7 days after member registration opens, if seats are still available.
