Other Bo/giano Lawn Grasses 



Kentucky Blue Grass {Poa pratensis). While it requires 

 about two years to become well established, Kentucky Blue 

 Grass is known for the beautiful lawns it makes. Creeping 

 underground stems produce a tough sod that thrives best in 

 neutral soils and medium moist climates. Extreme hot dry 

 weather retards its growth and mowing under 1}-^ inches is 

 not recommended. May be sown alone or in grass mixture. 

 Lb. $1.00; 10 lbs. $9.00; 25 lbs. $16.00. 



Red Top {Agrostis alba). Red Top belongs to the Bent family 

 and is often used in lawn mixtures as a nurse grass. It will 

 last about three years under close mowing. While it has good 

 value in lawn grass mixtures, it is not recommended to be planted 

 alone for turf unless a quick temporary cover is wanted. Lb. 

 $1.10; 10 lbs. 110.00; 25 lbs. $19.50.

 varieties are Astoria and Highland. Astoria, lb. $1.35; 10 lbs. 

 $13.00. Highland, lb. $1.25; 10 lbs. $11.50.

 seed. It surpasses Seaside Bent in density and is more disease 

 resistant. Especially adapted for golf putting greens. Lb. $4.25; 

 10 lbs. $40.00.

 known as Italian and Common Rye Grass. Valuable as a nurse 

 crop in lawn mixtures and thrives well in almost any soil or 

 climate. Lb. 35c.; 10 lbs. $3.00; 25 lbs. $5.75.

 sistance, withstands closer mowing. Used in mixtures or may be 

 seeded alone. Lb. $2.50; 10 lbs. $24.00.

 ponent of all good shady lawn mixtures forms a low, dense, 

 mat-like turf of fine needle-like leaves. It is popular for lawns 

 and golf courses because of its drought resistance and ability 

 to thrive on most soils. Lb. $1.15; 10 lbs. $10.50; 25 lbs. $20.00. 



Kentucky 31 Tall Fescue. A strain of tall Fescue adapted to 

 wet, poorly drained .soils, yet it produces well on dry soils of low 

 fertility. The foliage is coarse. Used mostly as a pasture grass.

Poa Trivialis. Known as the Blue Grass of the shade. Thrives

 particularly in low, moist areas. Lb. $1.10; 10 lbs. $10.00; 25 lbs. 



$18.75.
