Abstract
2013 National Turfgrass Evaluation Program Bermudagrass Test: 2015 Data
Highlights
During the course of the summer, we looked at turf color and texture and found that vegetative varieties *Celebration, *Patriot, FAES 1327, and OKC 1131 were the darkest green and that the two darkest green seeded varieties were *Yukon and JSC 2009-2-s
In September, we rated for seed head display and found that vegetative varieties 11-T-510 and OKC 1302 had the fewest seedheads
At the end of October, we looked at fall color retention and found that vegetative types FAES 1327 and *DT-1 and seeded types Princess 77, Yukon, 11-T-510, and OKC 1163 retained their color the longest
Summary
2013 National Turfgrass Evaluation Program Bermudagrass Test: 2015 Data[1] Because new introductions are continually being selected for improved hardiness and quality, both seeded and vegetative types need regular evaluation to determine their long-range suitability for use in Kansas. Evaluate seeded and vegetative bermudagrass cultivars under southern Kansas’s conditions and submit data collected to the National Turfgrass Evaluation Program.
