Template:Short description Template:Speciesbox

Axonopus compressus is a species of grass. It is often used as a permanent pasture, groundcover, and turf in moist, low fertility soils, particularly in shaded situations. It is generally too low-growing to be useful in cut-and-carry systems or for fodder conservation.

While not optimal, it is occasionally used for football fields especially those which are not for elite competitions or where only a low level of maintenance can be done.

Taxonomy

Axonopus compressus is known by several common names including broadleaf carpetgrass,[1] carpet-grass,[2] American carpet grass, tropical carpet grass, blanket grass, lawn grass, Louisiana grass, savanna grass, and Kearsney grass.
