SCHWILL’S LAWN GRASS 
EMERALD LAWN GRASS 
This is by far the best mixture of grasses offered for the purpose of quickly producing a 
permanent lawn. It is prepared from our own formula and is a careful blending of varieties 
adapted to producing the thick growth and velvety appearance so much sought after. Each 
variety of grass in its composition is there for a special purpose—some for making strong, 
fibrous roots, which take hold upon the soil and keep the turf in place; others of a creeping 
nature quickly fill up any bare spots; varieties which are useful for their color value, and 
also kinds that are able to withstand the beating down of excessive rains. Use Emerald 
Lawn Grass Mixture at the rate of one pound for every 225 square feet. 1 lb. 40c, post paid. 
SHADY SPOT LAWN GRASS 
Usually it is quite difficult to obtain a satisfactory growth of grass under trees and in 
shady places. For sowing such places we recommend the use of our Shady Spot Mixture. 
It will quickly produce an abundant and even growth of beautiful green grass. Use one 
pound for every 225 square feet. 1 lb. 45c, post paid. 
KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS 
Intended for moist or cool, shady nooks. Although it grow's almost wild in its native 
state of Kentucky, it is not successful in points further south. LTnlike Bermuda, it can not 
stand the summer sun and will burn up in the first hot spell. Therefore, we do not recom¬ 
mend it for a permanent lawn that will be exposed to the sun. Plant it in the shade only. 
1 lb. 40c, post paid. 
BERMUDA GRASS 
Because it is very slow in germinating straight Bermuda should not be planted alone. 
Always buy Emerald Lawn, the basis of which is Bermuda. Nevertheless, we always stock 
the fanciest Bermuda that Arizona grows. 1 lb. 40c, post paid.
