HANSEN GRASS 

Carl A. Hansen taken in Siberia shortly 
after he had found this new grass. 
Defies Drouth . . . Green All Summer 
Ohl for a lawn that will stay green, without watering, all 
summer. Yet this is exactly what Hansen Grass will dol 
Even in the driest weather. It has the brightest green color 
of any grass I have ever seen and it will keep this color 
throughout the season even through the driest weather, 
whether you water it or not. 
I originally found this grass growing in the wild, in a semi- 
arid region in the heart of cold central East Siberia. Its unique 
beauty and brilliant green first caught my attention because 
it stood out from all the other vegetation which was in a 
rather dried up condition. After closer observation, its dwarf 
nature and fine stems really enthused me, and I decided that 
here was a grass that had real possibilities. 
Not until I had brought this new grass safely back to 
America and had it in my nursery for further tests and propa- 
gation did I realize what a find it really was. Nature had 
qiven this new grass the inherent qualities for a hardier, finer, 
wart growing, drouth resistant lawn covering, all wrapped 
up, as it were, in one small package. 
Since then we have been growing and propagating it as 
rapidly as possible so that others can enjoy it too. 
We only have a few plants available this year but while 
they last and to those who get their order in early we offer 
them out. 
Place your order now. Plants will be shipped at the proper 
time when ready, alone in a separate package from your 
other nursery stock order.
