| Abstract/Contents: | "Sixteen species of herbaceous perennial flowering plants were planted with five different treatments (three buffalograss lines, one blue grama line, and no turf) to determine the growth and flowering characteristics of these herbaceous plants with the turf treatments. Plants were measured for survival, time of emergence, percent of plants flowering, initial flowering, number of flower stalks, plant height, and pod number/plant one-year after planting. There were highly significant differences for all traits for plots, species, and plot x species interaction. Individual plant vigor was highest where there was no grass competition. Species that performed well in all turf treatments included Echinacea pallida, Salvia azurea, Solidago rigida, and Ratibida pinnata." |
