| Abstract/Contents: | Information presented by Mr. White on seeding fairways in the South. Instead of 100% Bermuda grass, White used a mixture of 90% Bermuda grass and 10% carpet grass on the Ocean-Forest Country Club course. "Like Bermuda grass, carpet grass wilts after a frost, but unlike Bermuda grass it will produce green again after a few warm days have come." Mr. White concludes that the solution to the fairway turf problem in the southern climate is carpet grass. |
