High School Botany/Horticulture

Youngest is interested in taking Botany for a Science elective.  She already has Biology, Chemistry, Human Anatomy, Physics, Animal Science, and will have Advanced Animal Science (and is not interested in the Apologia Marine Biology).  I told her she didn't have to do another science but Botany is something that interests her.  I didn't realize it would be difficult to find a curriculum for Botany.  All of our sciences have had labs so it seems strange to do a textbook-based course.
One thing we're considering is doing .5 credit Botany and .5 credit Horticulture.

This is simply a compilation of resources I've come across in my search as we decide.
