PERMANENT TURF GRASSES 
Only a limited number of grasses are suit¬ 
able for lawn purposes in the northern part 
of the United States. These include (1) Ken¬ 
tucky Bluegrass, (2) New Zealand Chewing’s 
Fescue, (3) Poa trivialis (shade only), and 
(4) the various bent grasses. These are per¬ 
manent grasses, fine in 
texture, beautiful in color, 
and any good lawn seed 
blend must be built around 
them. 
SEED BLENDS 
Better results will be se¬ 
cured if the turf grasses, 
which germinate slowly 
and grow slowly when 
young, are sown in con¬ 
junction with quick ger¬ 
minating and rapid grow¬ 
ing nurse grasses, such as 
Red Top and Rye Grass, 
but the proportion of the 
seeds of the nurse grasses 
must be small as otherwise 
they will crowd out the 
turf grasses instead of 
helping them develop. 
Permalawn Sunny and 
Semi-Shady blends contain only 25 percent of 
Red Top and Permalawn Shady but 20 per¬ 
cent. 
Lawn seed mixtures cannot be judged on 
the basis of “quick” results. The “four day” 
lawn will usually be a temporary lawn.
