Abstract
Abstract Our celebration of the 75th anniversary of the American Society for Horticultural Science is an appropriate time to reflect on the past three-quarters of a century, review our record, and hopefully to revel in our accomplishments. As George Santayana has stated, “Those who can't remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” Still it is reasonable to ask ourselves if our profession — Horticultural Science — is really only 75 years old? I think not. It is surely much older. My thesis is that horticulture takes us back to the beginning of man's rendevous with civilization.
