BERMUDA GRASS 
Unhulled—For lawns sow 2 to 4 pounds per 1000 square feet. 
For pasture, sow 25 pounds per acre.

Bermuda grass is generally considered best for main- 
taining a beautiful and perfect lawn. It is of fine 
texture, can be maintained green practically the year 
around, is a rapid grower and produces a lush, green 
carpet of turf though it requires careful attention in 
maintenance. Frost will turn it brown for a short 
period, but it soon regains its green color. It prefers 
loam or clay soil and will grow well on sand or muck. 
20 to 30 pounds per 1000 square feet of a complete fer- 
tilizer such as Vigoro or Vertagreen should be applied 
twice a year. Frequent weeding is desirable. Although 
Our grass seeds are recleaned, well-bagged, and of 
Bermuda grass will respond to watering, it will stand 
considerable drouth. A thorough watering every 5 to 
7 days during periods of drouth should be sufficient. 
The grass may be clipped closely (34 to 1 inch) and fre- 
quently. Bermuda will not grow in shade. It spreads 
by surface runners and by underground reot stalks. 
Seed can be planted from March to November.

grass). Will tolerate dry or infertile soils, but makes
