Abstract/Contents:Discusses the potential popularity of ultradwarf bermudagrass greens in northern areas of the United States. Suggests that bermudagrass may be migrating through the transition zone due to extreme weather. States that "we have experienced killing winters in the lower Midwest over the last two years and bermudagrass greens that were without winter covers with generally damaged and, in some cases, severely so." Overviews the potential benefits of using bermudagrass in the transition zone, and concludes that "ultradwarf bermudagrasses are being utilised [utilized] in wider northern Transition Zone climates with great success because they are more adapted to the climates of the South than are the bentgrasses in many areas."
