Abstract
Growth and phenological development of rough fescue (F. scabrella) in interior British Columbia were documented for 3 yr. The plants began growing around mid-April and normally ceased growing in late June. Culm growth began in late May and ceased at approximately the time leaf growth ceased. However, leaf and culm elongation ceased before the plants reached their full weight. Rough fescue headed out between May 14 and June 10 and seed shattering occurred between July 13 and 24. Seed head production per plant was variable from year to year. Fall regrowth occurred in Sept. in 1 yr, in Oct. another year, and not at all the other year.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
