關於本電子書

This book presents the fundamental concepts, tools and techniques of turfgrass  management in an easy to understand style to the home lawn growers, amateur gardeners, professional landscape architects, sports turf managers, turfgrass nursery developers, horticulturists and students of turfgrass science. The book can serve as a basic guide to all who are involved in turfgrass infrastructure planning, designing and maintenance.

The moment one gives close attention to anything, even a blade of grass, it becomes a mysterious, awesome, indescribably magnificent world in itself.
Grass is the forgiveness of nature - her constant benediction. Forests decay, harvests perish, flowers vanish, but grass is immortal.
Grass is the cheapest plant to install and the most expensive to maintain.
Sedges have edges, and rushes are round, grasses are hollow.  What have you found?
Fertilizer does no good in a heap, but a little spread around works miracles all over.
By means of water, we give life to everything.
