Turf Talk: Part 2 of 2

Completing our turf talk series, we're joined again by Dan Sandor, Ph.D, of the U of M Turfgrass Science Department. Join as we consider the uses of various turf varieties, including their drought tolerances, wear tolerance, proper fertilizer inputs, and other maintenance needs. With this series VLAWMO hopes to provide homeowners tools to make informed lawn care decisions. Each lawn is an important part of the watershed, balancing aesthetics, water conservation, and runoff impact.
