nice to see a little Texas Tech props down here in Houston

A Texas Tech University plant and soil science professor and a Lubbock nurseryman are about to cast a big shadow over Texas urban landscaping.

Rockwell Professor of Plant and Soil Science Dick Auld and his research team have scientifically characterized a new variety of hardy, drought-tolerant turfgrass that grows well under the shade of trees. The patent-pending grass variety will commercially be known as Shadow Turf, but technically it's a specially selected variety of Zoysiagrass that was discovered by Ivey.

...

Last year Texas Tech's Office of the Vice President for Research presented Auld with a $40,000 grant to promote and commercialize the new grass variety. As part of a commercial agreement with Ivey, Texas Tech receives a portion of the royalties from sale of the grass.
