Horticultural therapy is not just a particular group, it is a field of
therapy. There was a workshop on it at the Missouri Botanical Gardens last
year. Unfortunately, I was unable to attend. It's a wonderful idea, based
on scientific research that plants make people feel better. It was discussed
on the perennials list a few years back. I was just checking the archives
for another issue and happened to notice it. Check the Mallorn archives at
