Abstract: A new and distinct variety of Centipedegrass named ‘SS-0705’, is characterized by its green stolons, white flowers, short inflorescence, short and narrow leaf blades, compared to other Centipedegrass varieties.
Abstract: A new and distinct variety of Centipedegrass named ‘SS-0607’, is characterized by its green and purple stolons, white and purple flowers, long leaf blades, aggressive root system fast lateral growth, compared to other Centipedegrass varieties.
Abstract: A new and distinct turf grass cultivar of Festuca arundinacea plant named ‘KT12’, characterized by the combination of a large number of rhizomes, long rhizomes, and a dense growth habit; characteristics which translate to a highly aesthetic turf grass that exhibits improved environmental tolerances and lower production and maintenance input costs.
Abstract: The present invention is directed to turf grass seed mixtures for a low maintenance lawns and uses thereof. The lawn established from the specific seed varieties blended in certain proportions as described in the disclosure has a slow growth rate and deep roots and grows well in many regions across North America and elsewhere in the world. Because the lawn requires little watering or fertilizer and is hardy and naturally insect-tolerant, it is safe and environmentally friendly.
Abstract: A newly discovered, and asexually propagated genotype of Seashore Paspalum turfgrass with a distinct set of agronomic, horticultural, morphological, and insect resistant traits.
Abstract: A new and distinct cultivar of Cynodon dactylon plant named ‘LEG13A’, characterized by its fast speed of growth, very low seed head production, medium-strong plant density, strong sod strength, dark green leaf color and freedom from disease.
Abstract: A tall fescue variety known as breeder's code Bar Fa 08PB and seed used to produce the grass are provided. Methods of using the grass plant and the seed are also provided. This grass is suitable for use in turf (lawns, pastures, golf courses, sod, and other areas where excellent turf quality is desired) and forage pastures.
Abstract: A novel seashore paspalum cultivar (Paspalum vaginatum) is disclosed. The ‘SDX-1’ cultivar is characterized by having a fine texture, greater sod strength, increased rooting, improved color, improved density, and greater salinity tolerance.
