| Abstract/Contents: | "Russian wild-rye, Fairway crested wheatgrass, and certain strains of sheep fescue showed superior hardiness, resistance to wear, and turf quality at Saskatoon, Sask., Streambank wheatgrass, western wheatgrass, and a native sedge were persistent but showed inferior turf quality. Grasses lacking hardiness included Merion bluegrass, Kentucky bluegrass, Canada bluegrass, creeping red fescue, chewing's fescue, and certain strains of sheep fescue. Bromegrass had unsatisfactory turf quality and was easily damaged by vehicular traffic." |
