'Florona' stargrass (Cynodon nlemfuensis Vanderyst var. nlemfuensis)
(Reg. no. CV-155, PI 562691) is a vegetatively propagated,
long-lived perennial grass adapted to a wide range of
soil types in tropical and subtropical areas. Florona was selected
for persistence, high dry matter (DM) yields, and ability
to produce forage earlier in the spring than 'Florico'. Forage
production of Florona has been more uniform throughout the
growing season than either Florico or 'Ona' stargrass. Florona
was released in 1988 by the Florida Agricultural Experiment
Station and USDA-ARS
