Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the potential advantages and disadvantages of using tall fescue turfgrass. States that "tall fescue is the deepest rooting cool season turfgrass, which is the main reason for its high marks in drought tolerance." Mentions a Chicago District Golf Association (CDGA) variety trial at the Midwest Golf House building, explaining that "on May 22nd [2009], the CDGA seeded a variety trial of 58 different tall fescues." Reports the results of the trial, stating that "seven weeks after seeding, the majority of the tall fescue plots had more than 85% coverage." |
