74 PREMIER LAWN GRASS We feature lawn seed especially suited to Prairie weather and soil. Only top quality grass seed is used in Lindenberg s Premier brand lawn grass. You can buy cheaper seed, but it could take longer to fill in, or winter kill more easily. NEW LAWNS: The soil should be well cultivated, finely pulverized and levelled. Rolling it will show up those hollows that need to be filled. Plant a small area at a time and divide your seed so that the recommended quantity is applied to that area. Lightly rake or reroll. Keep the surface moist but not soaked, with several light, fine-spray waterings, rather than a few heavy applications, until the seed has germinated and taken root (usually days depending on the weather). Then, watering should become heavier but at longer intervals. It is best to sow grass when weather conditions are moist and moderately cool (i.e. early spring, or very early fall). However, grass can be sown anytime if it has the moisture it needs. Lawns are heavy feeders and should therefore be fertilized regularly after the first year. PREMIER 909 FINE TURF Canada No. 1 Lawn Grass Mixture Approximate Blend: Kentucky Blue Grass 40% Creeping Red Fescue 45% Annual Rye 15% This is our most popular mixture. It has been a proven performer on the Prairies for many years. Premier 909 stands up to traffic and winter conditions better than many other mixtures, yet with a little moisture and care it looks great! The Kentucky Blue grass provides the fine-bladed grass whereas the Creeping Red Fescue is a hardier strain that blends well with the Kentucky Blue. Because the Kentucky Blue Grass accounts for relatively less than the other varieties in the mixture, 909 makes a hardier lawn requiring a minimum of care. The Annual Rye provides a cover crop for the first year to allow the other 2 varieties to become well established. Sow 500 g to 30 square meters (275 square feet).

In printing this catalogue, we try to secure enough stock of each seed, bulb, root, or other products to satisfy to the best of our ability all orders we receive. However some crop shortages do result and another variety must be substituted. Unless otherwise instructed, we will choose a color or type as close as we can to the one you ordered. Perishable stock: Our perennial roots, bulbs, shrubs and fruits are kept cool and dormant until time of shipment. Once the stock has started to grow, climatic and soil conditions, which are of course beyond our control, become the most important variables in the success of the plant. Therefore, if you have a problem with our perennial roots, bulbs, shrubs, or fruits, or if your parcel is received in damaged condition, you must let us know right away. We will replace with the same or similar stock, or issue a credit note for the amount paid, at our option. The deadline to report any perishable stock that fails to grow is 40 days from the date of shipment. We regret that we cannot accept any claims after 40 days. All product descriptions, heights, sizes, days to maturity, or other information supplied in this catalogue are approximate and are based on the data we have. They can vary significantly with climate, soil type, location, planting methods, etc. Seed counts are variable. Order early. Seeds and non-freezable supplies will be sent out immediately. Perishable roots, bulbs, fruits, onions, potatoes and freezable supplies will be booked and reserved for you, and sent out postpaid after frost.
