William,
Yes, I am the hybridizer of Kentucky Bluegrass, that was a long time ago. When
we had the Median Convention here three or four years ago I had most all of my
introductions growing , three year clumps. It was fun to display them but
needing the space for new seedlings waning energy as time marches on were
reasons to part with some of them including Keentucky Bluegrass. It was
awarded the Cook-Douglas Medal in 1979. So pleased you enjoyed it.
