Henderson's Shady Nook 



LAWN GRASS SEED 



On nearly all lawns there are unsightly bare spots 

 under the shade of trees, which have baffled all efforts 

 to get into grass, but with this mixture there need be 

 no further difficulty. It is a combination of fine, dwarf 

 growing, evergreen varieties, which in their wild or 

 natuial state are to be found growing in the woods or 

 other sheltered and shaded spots. Ground that has 

 been densely shaded by trees is frequently "sour," and 

 if the drainage is defective it is apt to be covered with 

 moss and coarse grasses. In such cases an application 

 of slaked lime, at the rate of one bushel to each thousand 

 square feet, or forty bushels to the acre, is an excellent 

 corrective and sweetener, but the moss should be first 

 removed by the use of a sharp rake.

" ITe used Henderson's Shady Nook grass mixture under the 

 trees in Standish Park, and it is now growing very vigorously. 

 The lawn is fifty days old."

Henderson's Seaside 



LAWN GRASS SEED 



Along our seacoast there are many beautiful sum- 

 mer homes and resorts with such sandy saline surround- 

 ings that a turf of the favorite lawn grasses cannot be 

 produced. We have so often made up a mixture of special 

 grasses to thrive under these trying conditions that 

 we have concluded to offer it for the benefit of 

 others who may be having the same trouble 

 in getting grass to grow. Our Seaside mix- 

 ture will make a good turf of green on 

 sand where the finer grasses are not so 

 likely to thrive, though, of course, 

 the sand must b^ top-dressed with 

 not less than 2 inches of soil 

 before even our Seaside Grass 

 Seed is sown, to enable the 

 young grass to get a start. 

 Use at the rate of one quart 

 for 300 square feet; 5 

 bushels per acre.

"I obtained very good results 

 from Henderson's Sea-Side lawn 

 grass seed last year, and need one- 

 half bushel more."

Henderson's Sunny South 



LAWN GRASS SEED 



It is especially prepared for the South, and con- 

 tains all the best grasses that are by nature 

 adapted for hot, dry situations. In the 

 South, Bermuda Grass is frequently used, 

 but it remains green only in the summer 

 months, turning brown in winter; but by 

 using this mixture, and with some care 

 and attention to watering, an all-the- 

 year-round lawn can be maintained in 

 Southern States where grasses do not 

 usually thrive. 



Price, delivered free in the U. S., 35 

 cts. qt., $1.25 for 4 qts., $2.00 pk. 

 of 5 lbs., $7.00 bu. of 20 lbs. 



"Last year I used your Sunny South 

 Lawn Grass Seed, and had a beautiful 

 lawn, which caused many heads to turn in 

 passing. I almost wearied of answering 

 such questions, as where did I get it? etc., 

 etc" Mrs. J. C. PRICE. North, N. C. 

 March 7, 1916. 



' 7 am planning to place some additional por- 

 tion of my place into lawn, so you may send me 

 five bushels of Henderson's Sunny South Grass 

 Seed, same as you have furnished me for several 

 years. This particular grass does very well down 

 here." W. A. HEN SON,

Henderson's Terrace Sod 



LAWN GRASS SEED 



A special mixture of grasses, best suited for sowing on 

 terraces, embankments and hillsides. These grasses 

 produce long, strong, spreading roots, thus preventing 

 heavy rains from washing out the soil. These grasses 

 will withstand drought and exposure, thrive on shallow 

 soils, and at the same time produce a rich, velvety- 

 green turf throughout the season. There need be no 

 fear of introducing coarse grasses into your lawn by 

 sowing this mixture, for, though strong-rooted, the 

 grasses are fine-leaved, like those used in the "Hen- 

 derson Lawn Grass" mixture. 



Price, delivered free in the U. S., 35 cts. qt., $1.25 for 

 4 qts., $2.00 pk. of 5 lbs., $7.00 bu. of 20 lbs 



"From your Terrace Sod Seed last year in just five weeks I 

 had the finest sod on terrace you ever saw." 



O. M. KIMMELL, Trafford. Pa. 



These mixtures are composed principally of native 

 Grasses, mingled with a few varieties of foreign origin. 

 They are undoubtedly the best for the 

 AMERICAN CLIMATE and AMERICAN CONDITIONS
