Fig. 1. General turfgrass quality and color of four overseeding grasses at Fayetteville, AR, including (A) diploid perennial ryegrass, (B) tetraploid perennial ryegrass, (C) intermediate ryegrass, and (D) meadow fescue. Photos were taken on 11 May 2005 with natural lighting.

Fig. 2. Survival of overseeded, cool-season grasses as measured in the second winter following seeding. Data was collected after bermudagrass went into winter dormancy. Within each location, means sharing either an uppercase (Arkansas) or lowercase (Alabama) letter are not statistically different according to Fisher's protected LSD ({alpha} = 0.05).
