Characteristics of 
... DICHONDRA 
I have had many inquiries as to why Di- 
chondra turns yellow and then brown spots 
appear, I will try to answer these questions 
and at the same time suggest a remedy’ for 
the same: 
DICHONDRA blooms in the months of 
March and April. Very soon after the bloom- 
ing period 2 seeds form on top of the stems, 
then the stem turns down, tucking the seeds 
just at the surface of the ground, leaving 
the seed bare. 
As there is no soil to cover them the 
leaves of ithe plant turn yellow and «om- 
mence to fall off the stem. This is don: by 
the plant to throw down enough leaves; to 
cover the seed. It will go so far as to kil! all 
its leaves where the seeds are thick, to cre- 
ate a muleh to make the seed sprout. 
This can be controlled by using the li suid 
fertilizer we have recommended (DICH )N- 
DRA FERTILIZER No. 1). What this fer- 
tilizer does is to stimulate the growtl of 
DICHONDRA, bringing back the new lez ves.
