A brief history of Agrostis stolonifera golf greens in the UK & Ireland
Creeping Bent Grass (Agrostis stolonifera ) (Agrostis palustris) has a relatively short and dare it say not so smooth history in the UK. None the less it is an important history with much to be learnt from it. If my memory serves me correctly the first Creeping Bent Grass (CBG) greens sown in the UK were at Moor Allerton GC around 1971. This was the first Robert Trent Jones design in the UK and I think he specified Penncross for the greens.
