DEPENDABLE 
LAWN SEEDS 
for the Northwest 
Astoria Bent 
Produces numerous root stocks which 
spread underground and throw up new 
shoots, making a very thick turf. This 
Bent has a good color and is excellent 
for lawns and putting greens. Does not 
require as much cutting as Creeping 
Bent. 
Olympic Colonial Bent 
A Lilly's introduction that we believe is 
the finest bent grass we can offer. 
Makes a beautiful, fine-leaved, even 
turf. Requires less moisture because of 
its deeper rooting system, Will work 
well in mixture with Creeping Fescue, 
Chewings Fescue and Kentucky Blue 
Grass. 
Seaside Bent 
A true creeping Bent. The plant is 
dwarf, and multiplies rapidly by sending 
out runners in all directions. With prop- 
er watering and care, it makes a strong, 
enduring turf. If damaged it heals over 
promptly. 
Kentucky Blue Grass 
21 pounds per bushel. Produces a deep, 
dark-green lawn of close, thick turf. 
Maintains its green color until late fall. 
Roots are deep, and plants are very 
hardy. Makes one of the best lawns. 
Lilly’s Best Kentucky Blue Grass 
28 to 30 pounds per bushel. Lilly's has 
taken 21 pound Blue Grass and care- 
fully cleaned out all chaff, large seed 
and inert matter to where the seed will 
weigh more to the bushel. The most 
seed for your money in Blue Grass. 
Chewings Fescue 
A superb grass to grow in rather 
shaded areas and even on fairly acid 
soil and under other unfavorable con- 
ditions. Plants grow low, make a dense 
turf. Often used for putting greens and 
fairways. 
Red Creeping Fescue 
Rapidly becoming the most popular of 
the fescues for lawns and general field 
use. This seed is Northwest grown and 
therefore has much better germination 
than the imported fescues. Has a very 
good ability to resist fungus growth. 
Develops a finer texture and makes an 
excellent turf. 
Lilly’s Best White Dutch Clover 
Although not a grass, White Clover is 
very desirable in lawn mixtures be- 
cause of its rapid, low growth and 
creeping stems. Valuable as a green 
cover for poor ground. Succeeds best 
on moist ground or during wet season. 
Domestic Rye Grass 
A quick-growing annual, valuable in 
lawn mixtures as a nurse crop, to keep 
lawn green while better, slow-growing 
varieties are becoming established. Suc- 
ceeds well on almost any soil. 
Perennial Rye Grass 
A quick growing grass, most suitable 
for mixtures. Succeeds well on almost 
any soil not water logged. 
Red Top 
Particularly suitable for wet, low spots, 
as it stands wet weather, or even over- 
flowing, better than other grasses, Also 
does well on almost any good, rich soil. 
Often thrives where blue grass fails— 
and therefore makes an excellent sup- 
plement for it.
