What Vigoro Will Do for Your Lawn 
and Garden 
Develop thick, springy turf with no thin 
spots. Produce a deep root-system. 
Helps choke out weeds. Grass roots start 
earlier than weeds. A good feeding puts grass 
ahead of the weeds. Soon a good matted root- 
system and turf leave little room for weeds 
to grow. 
Develops large colorful flowers with strong 
healthy stems and blooms, and more of them. 
Helps plants resist disease—just as a child’s 
resistance to disease is built up by proper diet. 
Develops early, delicious vegetables and 
gives new life to trees and shrubs.
