factory for golf putting greens. 32 lbs. per bu.

very rapid creeper. Used in the South. Not very 
hardy in the North. Perennial.

turf spring and fall, but disappears entirely in very 
hot weather. Readily re-seeds even when cut close. 
Should be used only with other grasses.

per bu. 98 percent pure. Used a great deal for 
lawns. Produces a good nutritious pasturage.

known as New Zealand Fescue. 24 lbs. per bu. 
This grass succeeds in all kinds of soils. Excellent 
shade grass particularly in light dry soils. Perennial.

of sheep fescue. It is an excellent shade grass, 
tolerant of heat and dry soil. Dark green in color.

pratensis)—-24 lbs. per bu. Known as Evergreen

Fescue, Genuine Creeping Red (Festuca rubra)— 
15 lbs. per bu. Do not confuse this with the ordinary

green, narrow blades. Forms a dense, velvety turf 
free from weeds and is adapted to shade and rea- 
sonably poor soil. 
Fescue-Sheep, Ordinary Red, or Hard (Festuca 
ovina)—14 Ibs. per bu. There is a slight difference 
between the strains of Sheep, Ordinary Red (not 
Creeping) and Hard Fescue, but of recent years the 
strains have been substituted so regularly and have 
been so mixed that we are offering only one strain. 
It is excellent for pastures and withstands much 
heat and drought.
