| Abstract/Contents: | SUMMARY: "It was shown that a common bermudagrass/strawberry clover mix can be best established by overseeding Rhizobium innoculated strawberry clover at a 1 to 2 pound per 1,000 square feet seeding rate, in the fall to low cut, vertically mowed common bermudagrass sward. The mixture compatibility of the two species was good. Similarities in color and growth habit resulted in a fairly uniform turf with little evidence of patchy growth, especially when no or low nitrogen and high cutting heights were practiced. Some problems associated with the use of strawberry clover in common bermudagrass were noted. The most serious problem is the heavy clover inflorescence in the summer which is both unsightly and a bee attractant. Facility use with bee activity would be reduced or eliminated. A less serious problem, but one worthy of note, was that the succulent clover growth, resulted in a mowing problem. The succulent sward often times clogged the rotary mower." |
