Question:"Meadow fescue can be purchased for $15 delivered and sheep's fescue for $26. Have you any information as to how suitable meadow fescue would be as a grass for rough?"
Source of Question:Connecticut
Answer/Response:"We do not think you would be satisfied with meadow fescue on your rough. It is of too rank a growth, and a ball lost in it would be extremely hard to find. Sheep's fescue would be much the better grass for your rough. By very close cutting of the meadow fescue, however, it might prove satisfactory."
