Abstract/Contents:"This study examined the performance of Festuca spp. under close mowing. The experiment contained 49 treatments (cultivars), which included five types of fescue: F. rubra ssp. commutata Gaud. (Chewings fescue); F. rubra ssp. litoralis (G.F.W. Meyer) Auquier(slender creeping red fescue); F. rubra ssp. rubra L. (strong creeping red fescue); F. longifolia Thuill. (hard fescue) and F. tenuifolia Sibth. (fine-leaved sheep's fescue). As a group, there was little difference between Chewings fescue and slender creeping red fescue, but both types of fescue were finer leaved and maintained larger shoot densities than the other types of fescue in trial. Some of the recently bred stong creeping red fescues were comparable with the older, but well established, cultivars of Chewings fescue."
