Abstract
Determines the effects of fertilization and mowing on Duchesnea indica and Viola sororia (syn. V. papilionacea) i) in a tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea) lawn. Viola sororia was virtually eliminated by mowing at biweekly intervals at heights of either approximately 4 or 6 cm. Fertilization had no effect on V. sororia.Suggested Citation
