| Question: | "I am sending you a specimen of a grass which has invaded our bent greens and which is objectionable on account of its courseness. What is the grass and how can we get rid of it?" |

| Source of Question: | New York |

| Answer/Response: | "Your specimen is rough-stalked bluegrass, or bird grass (Poa trivialis). The best thing to do with it is to cut it out if you want to get rid of it. Otherwise it will persist, especially if the greens are kept moist, as they should be. It thrives in shade; and if your greens in which it occurs are shaded you may find, however, that it will make a faily good turf. we have had several reports from clubs recently that this grass is in ther bent greens, and we are inclined to think that it got there as an impurity in German mixed bent seed" |
