naturalised, like Narcissi Cyclamineus, Minimus, etc. ; also Scillas, Chionodoxas, Snowdrops, etc.

Dutch Clover, Finest White. No Clover is included in our mixtures of Grasses, as we consider a laum 
should consist of Grass alone. If Clover is desired, however, it may be used at the rate of 3 to 5 lb. 
per acre ; but it is preferable to sow the Clover separately from the Grass Seed. Per lb. Is. 6d. 
Barr’s Special Lawn Phytobroma. 
The best manure for Grass Lawns, Tennis Courts, ‘Bowling Greens, Golf Links, etc. 
Apply Spring and Autumn, using 2 oz. to the square yard at each application. 
Bapp’s Lawn Phytobroma is composed of those ingredients calculated to encourage a vigorous growth 
of grass only, and in this respect differs from the potash manures, which are apt to stimulate clovers and 
coarse weeds. We can confidently recommend it for all grass lands, as, by its use, a thicker growth and a 
richer colour will be obtained. It is a highly concentrated manure, and is therefore economical in use, a 
small quantity only being required at each application. Circular with fuller particulars sent on application.

Ready mixed -for use. 
A specially prepared Mixture suitable for growing bulbs in vases, bowls, jardinets, etc. A charming 
effect can be obtained by growing spring-flowering bulbs in fancy vases and bowls, with or without 
drainage, by the use of our Fertilised Fibre, Shell, and Charcoal Mixture; the mixture is light, 
clean, and nice to handle, and remains sweet (an important matter where the vases used have no drainage 
holes) ; indeed, it is in every way preferable to soil where bulbs are grown in bowls or vases.
