Plantkunde / diploma
Nederlands term of zin: "groot groen"
"In de opleiding zijn certificaten behaald op het gebied van *groot groen* en beheer van natuur- en landschapsobjecten, zoals vermeld op het diploma-aanhangsel met certificaten."

The context here is an appendix to a diploma (diploma-aanhangsel). I've provisionally translated this as 'large foliage', but would be interested to hear if there is a more accurate solution for this.

Cheers,
R.
