Abstract/Contents: | Reports on "trials of bentgrasses (Agrostis spp.)" with the objective of "identifying the best grasses for planting in Illinois." Explains that the bentgrasses were "maintained at fairway and putting green heights at the University of Illinois Landscape Horticulture Research Center in Urbana." Also states that the "putting green trial contained 26 entries...of creeping (Agrostis stolonifera) and velvet (A.canina) bentgrasses evaluated at 24 [United States] and Canadian locations, while the fairway trial had 28 entries...of creeping and colonial (A.capillaris) bentgrasses evaluated at 22 [United States] and Canadian sites." Reports that "the two grasses that really performed...were Mackenzie and Tyee" and "for fairway, the grasses 13-M, Crystal Bluelinks, Declaration, Penneagle II, and T-1 all performed well." |
