GROWING TURF IN SHADE IS
PERENNIAL PROBLEM
Shade is desirable in the landscape,
but it is the No. 1 problem in grow-
ing turf grass.
"Many people just do not under-
stand that grasses do not do as well in
shade as they do in full sunlight," said
Dr. Richard Duble, turf grass special-
ist for the Texas Agricultural Exten-
sion Service. "There are a lot of situa-
tions where you just can't grow grass
in the environment that you have."
"Environmental changes caused by
shade have a major effect on grass,"
Duble said. "Reduced light, less ex-
treme temperatures, increased humid-
ity, restricted air movement, competi-
tion from trees, increased disease
problems and shallow root systems
are all products of shade."
Additionally, grass in shade has less
ability to use nitrogen, less photosyn-
thetic activity, less growth, less wear
tolerance, more susceptibility to pre-
emergent herbicides and less tolerance
to cold.
"The problem is not fertilizer or

City
Honor
Rolls
Washington, D.C. He was active in
scouting all his life and was awarded
the Silver Beaver Award, scouting's
highest honor for leadership. He was a
member of the Mahi Shrine in
Miami, the Elks Club of Pompano
Beach and the Coral Springs Lions
Club.
Survivors include his wife; three
sons, Robert Barry Barton, Jr. and
Matthew Barton of Coral Springs,
Florida and Churchill J. Barton of
Livermore, Maine; one sister, Barbara
White of Emerado, North Dakota; and
two grandchildren.
water, it is light," Duble said. "To
grow turf in the shade, you must have
a shade-tolerant grass."
Bermuda grass and buffalo grass
have little shade tolerance. San Augus-
tine is probably the most shade-toler-
ant warn' season grass, followed close-
ly by centipede and zoysia. Tall fes-
cue, a cool season grass, will grow in
moderate to heavy shade where San
Augustine fails.
For any success at growing grass in
filtered shade, Duble suggets these
practices:
1.    Start with a grass variety suitable
for shade.
2.    Raise the mowing height.
3.    Water deep and infrequently.
4.    Apply nitrogen moderately in fall
and spring.
5.    Avoid high nitrogen applications
in the summer.
In many heavily shaded areas, it is
best to use ground cover plants or
other landscape materials rather than
wasting time and money trying to go
against nature, Duble says.
