Grass Mixture for Shady Places.
LAWN GRASS MIXTURE FOR SHADY PLACES
If wanted hy mall add for postage at zone rates.
To maintain a nice growth of grass under trees and in places where the sunlight only reaches part of the day was
long considered almost hopeless. This can now be overcome in a great measure by our mixture, which is composed of
dwarf, compact growing grasses that naturally grow in partial shade and will maintain a close, thick turf throughout
the entire season. It frequently happens that the ground under trees becomes impoverished by the roots of the trees,
making It almost Impossible for grass to thrive unless a liberal top dressing of fertilizer is supplied, or when the ground
has soured and covered with moss an application of ground lime will be found beneficial before sowing the seed.

GRASS MIXTURE FOR TERRACES

homes where a close, even velvety turf is not easily
.secured, owing to the difficulty of watering, etc.. so
necessary for the maintenance of a perfect lawn. The
grasses used are such as endure drought and rough
usage to a remarkable degree.
"We have made up this mixture in a great measure
for the formation of lawns at Lakeside Summer Homes
that can only have attention during the summer
month.s, and for this purpose it will be found inval-
uable.
