Quality 
Town of Greenwich Grass Seed 
Mixture e For Sun or Shade 
ESPECIALLY ADAPTED 
TO THIS LOCALITY 
This is the same formula that is 
used in the beautiful parks of the 
Town of Greenwich. Because of its 
high fescue content, it is adapted to 
shade and sun. Its velvety green 
color Is outstandingly good, and Its 
texture is very fine. The Illahee 
Creeping Red Fescue in this mixture 
helps fight crabgrass. This formula 
was first offered by us in limited 
quantity in 1952. Since then, time 
has proved it to be most satisfactory 
and very permanent. The repeat 
business on this new mixture also 
indicates to us that those who have 
tried it are most satisfied with the 
results. Lb. $1.50: 5 Ibs. $7.25; 
25 Ibs. $35.00; 100 Ibs. $138.00.

ditions in this locality. Possesses exceptional staying qualities

25 Ibs. $30.60; 100 Ibs. $119.30. 
Sunilawn. Although Sunilawn has a rougher texture than the 
higher-priced mixtures, we consider it very practical. It 
grows well under rough soil conditions and contains white 
clover, which we highly recommend. Lb. $1.00; 5 Ibs. $4.75; 
25 Ibs. $23.00; 100 Ibs. $90.00. 
Green-Up. This is a quick-growing, economical mixture of 
grasses. Since the grasses in this mixture are not 100% 
permanent, Green-Up is often used for a temporary stand 
of grass. We do not recommend it for permanent lawn areas, 
although it is often used for such. Again we say that the 
high-priced grass seed mixtures are the least expenstve when 
you consider the high cost of reseeding and renovating.

crabgrass. For best results use the new 
Wild White Clover, which is more com- 
pact and much more durable than the 
Common White Clover.
