Paspalum vaginatum description:
Paspalum vaginatum is a species of grass known by many names, including seashore paspalum, biscuit grass, saltwater couch, silt grass, and swamp couch.It is native to the Americas, where it grows in tropical and subtropical regions.It is found throughout the other tropical areas of the world, where it is an introduced species and sometimes an invasive weed.It is also cultivated as a turfgrass in many places.
This grass has been bred into cultivars which are used for golf course turf and other landscaping projects. It forms a higher quality turf than bermudagrass in poor conditions, such as wet soils and low light levels, and with fewer nitrogen soil amendments.It can grow in lawns that receive rain on 250 days per year, and it can survive being waterlogged or submerged for several days at a time. It tolerates foot traffic. The main advantage of this grass is that it is very salt-tolerant. It can be irrigated with non-potable water, such as greywater, an important advantage in a time when there are increasing restrictions on water use. The grass can even be irrigated with saltwater. It has the highest salt tolerance of all turfgrasses.It is also more competitive against weeds than similar grasses. Weeds can be controlled by the application of saltwater, in which weeds will die and the grass will survive.
There are many cultivars bred for various uses. These cultivars are highly variable. For example, golf courses. There are other uses for the grass, including erosion control in sandy coastal areas. It can be used in phytoremediation when the soils are high in heavy metals.It has been shown to survive pollution with crude oil. It can be used to feed livestock and some wild herbivores will graze it.
