The studies are intended for graduates of various fields of study, interested in the use of ornamental plants both in private (flat, home garden) and public space (workplace, office buildings, greenery) through the proper use of plants, both due to their aesthetic qualities and and pro-health impact to improve the quality of life. The aim of the studies is to develop the students’ creativity and teach the use of plants as a plastic material. Classes include 280 hours of classes – 90 hours of lectures, 90 hours of practice and 100 hours of practical classes. Two-day meetings take place once a month from the beginning of March 2021 to February 2022 (summer holiday break). During the theoretical classes, students will learn about plant material and the principles of interior decoration, creating plant compositions (from potted, cut and permanent plants) and planting seasonal flower beds, flower beds and various types of containers (balconies, terraces, patios, greenery, roof gardens) with the use of perennials and ornamental trees and shrubs. The participants of the study will learn about the impact of ornamental plants on the human environment and the possibilities of using them to improve the quality of life – aromatherapy and hortiotherapy (therapeutic gardens). The study program meets new trends in improving the quality of life through contact with plants and is intended to provide students with the knowledge of the current range of ornamental plants and new perspectives for their application. As part of the exercises and practice, students make design assumptions for seasonal flowerbeds, perennial beds and interior decorations; they visit wholesalers and points of sale of plants, nurseries of perennials and ornamental shrubs; learn about plants in educational collections. Classes will be conducted by specialists dealing with ornamental plants, landscape and interior architects and artists. The basis for the completion of the studies will be the implementation of the assumptions for the selected planting project.
