| Abstract/Contents: | Describes the benefits of using the perennial peanut (Arachis glabrata) for Florida ground cover. States that the positive characteristics include "a high degree of tolerance to the stresses of Florida's environment, which translates into a reduction of management inputs, such as water, pesticides, and fertilizer, as well as a reduction of management time." Discusses factors important to the sucess of the plant, including good irrigation, full sunlight, and keeping the plot free of competing weeds. |
