| This new fine-bladed seashore paspalum cultivar, developed by the University of Georgia, is ideal for golf course fairways, tees, and roughs. It makes a fine choice for sports turf, home lawns and commercial landscaping, too. It's a grass that thrives on salt water. It grows quite well when watered from recycled or effluent sources.You can also irrigate SeaIsle1 using a seawater blend with the right management practices. As drinking water becomes more and more scarce, ocean water and these other low-quality sources are going to be the only option for most lawns. The hard fact is, turfgrass management is going to center on water quality and water conservation, and grasses of the future are going to have to be bred to withstand multiple environmental stresses. Dr. Paul Raymer is now in charge of the University of Georgia's seashore paspalum breeding program. To contact Dr.Raymer, click here. SeaIsle1 is a patented turfgrass variety.
