Abstract/Contents:Profiles lawn-bowls greenkeeper Rhonda French. Notes that "she prefaces her remarks about turf care by saying it is important to 'imagine [being] the turf' because this helps create a picture of the nutrition, water and physical treatments that are appropriate." Highlights French's greenkeeping practices, explaining that "her preference is scotts slow-release granular feriliser [fertilizer], which allow plants to take up nutrients when they want them." Discusses her career as a greenkeeper, explaining that "getting the job at the prestegious Adelaide Bowling Club after an apprenticeship at the Holdfast Bay Club and service at the Airport Bowling Club, has been a dream come true."
