Bermudagrass plant `FHB-135`

Abstract

A dwarf, rapid spreading, stoloniferous bermudagrass which has use on golf course putting greens, lawn bowls, grass tennis courts, and other turf areas where an extremely fine textured, low growing turf is desired. The grass has an improved density and winter color over the commercially available Tifdwarf cultivar of bermudagrass. The grass is clearly differentiated from Tifdwarf bermudagrass by DNA fingerprints generated through the use of multiplex DNA amplification fragment length polymorphism techniques.

I claim: 
     
       1. A new and distinct cultivar of bermudagrass plant, substantially as herein illustrated and described, characterized particular by the fine texture of the leaf blade and which produces a low growing turf of improved density and winter color.
