Other Bolgiarto Lawn Grasses

 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

 weather retards its growth and mowing under IJ^ inches is 

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

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

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

 $1.00; 10 lbs. $9.50; 25 lbs. $18.75.

 to thrive on most soils. Lb. $1.00; 10 lbs. $9.50; 25 lbs. $18.25.
