Explanation of Codes
The Nursery Stock Survey Committee of the Ohio Nursery & Landscape Association
believes that if this survey is to serve the needs of the industry, it must provide
both sources of nursery stock and an indication of the quantities available from each
source. It must also be as brief and concise as possible.
GROWER IDENTIFICATION LETTERS AND GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION
The Directory of Growers is an alphabetical listing of the growers included in the
survey. This listing includes: the name of the grower or firm, post office box or street
address, city telephone number, fax number (if available), county and zone. To the left
of the name are the grower identification letters. The grower letters identify this
grower throughout the survey section of the booklet. For a general geographical location
of each participating nursery, check the county and zone of the nurseries listed in the
Directory of Growers on the Ohio County and Zone Map.
