We are in the process of revising our Extension Fruit
Publications. We need your input.
Coming soon, a demonstration planting of Legacy
Buffalograss . Legacy is the lastest variety of
Buffalograss recently released
and developed by the UNL Buffalograss breeding project. It forms
a dark, dense turf, and the all-female line is well adapted throughout
all of Nebraska. We will be establishing a demonstration planting
of the turf, compliments of Todd
Valley Farms, who have the exclusive
rights to market the grass, and who provided us with some starter plugs.
