Abstract/Contents: | Profiles bermudagrass, highlighting its origin and the conditions under which it thrives. Discusses the potential difficulty faced in growing bermudagrass in the coastal regions of California. Explains that the weather is not ideal for bermudagrass, but "both tall fescue and the fine fescues do very well in these coastal regions as they have moderate heat and drought tolerance and do well under cloudy/foggy (slight shade) conditions." Offers management strategies that may help in managing bermudagrass in the coastal regions of California, focusing on shade, fertilzier application, mowing heights, and overseeding. |
