Abstract/Contents:Discusses the growing popularity of MiniVerde, which was "developed by H & H Seed of Yuma, Ariz., and marketed exclusively by Turfgrass America." Presents recent testing of seven Bermudagrasses by the National Turfgrass Evaluation Progam, which helped fuel MiniVerde's popularity. States that "more than 20 courses nationwide, including 10 in the past year, have gone to MiniVerde." Describes how resistant MiniVerde is and presents a superintendent who said "he probably saves $30,000 - $40,000 per year on fungicide expenses with MiniVerde."
