About Us

Can you imagine a Minnesota spring without the beauty of flowering crabapples, autumn without the gold and maroon of garden chrysanthemums, or a winter day without the enjoyment of a crisp, tart Haralson apple? Our students and faculty members are at the forefront of horticultural research, working hard to make the world a richer place to live now and in the future.
