Abstract/Contents:"Seashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum Swartz) is a warm-season, perennial turfgrass that has the potential to become the most environmentally compatible grass grown on golf courses. Papalum has excellent salt/salinity tolerance, can withstand recycled water irrigation, require virtually no pesticides and needs only minimal fertility. New fine-textured, slow-growing ecotypes have been identified that can be mowed at 1/8 inch on greens and additional rapid-growing types that are suited to fairways and tees. During 1995, GCSAA awarded a chapter affiliation collaboration grant to the University of Georgia GCSA and the GCSAA. The three-year program provides the opportunity for initial evaluation of new papalum ecotypes at three Atlanta golf courses: Berkeley Hills Country Club, The Standard Club, and Atlanta National. The golf course superintendent gains the experience of working with new improved grasses while providing actual on-course evaluation data that will help in the eventual release of the new grass. The collaboration benefits the golf course, the superintendent, the GCSAA, the University of Georgia and the golfing public." [Full text]
