| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the creation of a new golf course, Old Marsh Golf Club, in North Palm Beach, FL which is unique in its design for creating textures and preserving a natural wetlands habitat. A combination of grasses was used in rough areas to provide low maintenance and contrast to the 'Tifway 419' Bermudagrass fairways. Roughs and banks were seeded by a new method of hydro-mulching. 'TifDwarf' bermudagrass greens are overseeded with creeping bentgrass in the winter. Various native grasses provide cover for marsh areas while tees and appoaches have 'Tifgreen 328' bermudagrass. |
