Paspalum is compatible with most cool-season grasses used in overseeding. The entire golf course, except for the putting greens, was sprigged with seashore paspalum. Tees, fairways and roughs at King's Crossing are covered with the grass. Perhaps most striking was the uniformity of the turf and the complete absence of other grass species. Too much of a good thing Easy to grow means hard to kill, too.
Seashore paspalum is one of the toughest warm-season grasses to kill.
Some herbicides might control it in bermudagrass if the grass is attacked repeatedly, but most of the chemicals also damage the bermudagrass - and the seashore paspalum recovers more quickly. The University of Georgia's Dr. R.R. Duncan suggests that a one-two punch approach might work. Repeat a month later and on a fairly rigid schedule, otherwise the paspalum will rebound - with a vengeance. Each month, the second herbicide must be of a different class than the first herbicide, Duncan says. Follow label directions to minimize damage to the bermudagrass.
