A BIT ABOUT YOU
Understanding, people-oriented, and helpful, you feel rewarded by being of service to others. You clearly have a passion for the natural world and are curious how you can build your career in concert with it. The highlight of your day is spending time outdoors, and it’s even better when you’re doing it with friends. You’re in your Sophomore year of pursuing a Horticulture degree and eager to learn where your degree can take you and all the different ways you can make a difference.
A BIT ABOUT US
We like plants, people, and beautiful spaces. John Mulhall came to Omaha in 1953 to landscape, and now, three generations later, we’re as committed as we’ve ever been to making Omaha a more beautiful place to live. Today we’re a team of a few hundred people, but our focus remains the same: working together to engage our community and share our passion for the beauty of the natural world. And we have fun doing it.

You’ll spend time in each of our three Business Units, getting a complete picture of where your Horticulture degree could take you.
