Abstract/Contents:Discusses the results of a fine fescue cultivar performance trial. The cultivars were rated for quality, seedling vigor, winter color, spring green-up, percent living ground cover, and leaf spot incidence. States that "establishment in the fine fescues varied among the cultivars within any given species; however, many of the newer selections rated above average in establishment and were significantly better than many of the older cultivars" and that "breeding efforts continue to improve turf-type characteristics in the fine fescues."
