AVON PARK, Florida (Tuesday, April 3, 2007): Golf courses in Florida and California that are grassed with SeaDwarf® Seashore Paspalum, an environmentally friendly turfgrass from Environmental Turf, are high in the Golf Digest State-by-State rankings just released. The rankings published in the May 2007 issue of Golf Digest are available online today. Tuscany Reserve, a golf course in Naples, Florida, that is grassed tee-to-green with SeaDwarf®, is named as the #22 golf course in Golf Digest’s Florida list of Best in State rankings for 2007-2008. Two California courses that use SeaDwarf® in limited areas were also ranked highly. The Bridges at Rancho Santa Fe, located in Rancho Sante Fe, California, is ranked #18 in the California State-by-State list. The Bridges currently has SeaDwarf® on one tee. Shady Canyon Golf Club in Irvine, California, ranked #19, has SeaDwarf® on a practice green. “Whether used tee-to-green on a golf course or just on small areas as a test, it is clear that SeaDwarf® Seashore Paspalum has captured the attention of the game’s most influential leaders. To have SeaDwarf® in use on some of the country’s finest facilities is a testament to the grasses’ playability as well as its environmentally friendly attributes. We are thrilled every time a prestigious ranking like this is published and a golf course using SeaDwarf® is included,” said Stacie Zinn, president of Environmental Turf, the company that licenses sod producers to grow SeaDwarf® and markets the grass world-wide. SeaDwarf® Seashore Paspalum is the only true dwarf cultivar of all the paspalums on the market today, delivering the finest texture, fastest greens and lowest mowing heights. SeaDwarf® requires up to 50% less water for irrigation than the bermudagrasses traditionally used on warm-season golf courses. It also requires approximately 75% less nitrogen for fertilization than bermudagrass. SeaDwarf® may be irrigated with nearly any quality water, from potable to effluent, even seawater under proper maintenance. Plus, salt may be used as an herbicide. SeaDwarf® Seashore Paspalum is available through Environmental Turf and its domestic and international network of certified licensed sod producers.
