Nursery stock Virginia Richmond Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Grasses Seeds Catalogs; Gardening Equipment and supplies Catalogs. 58 T. W. WOOD & SONS, Richmond, Va. Creeping Bent Grass. {Agrostis Stolonifera.) This grass somewhat resembles the Red Top or Herd's Grass in growth and appearance, and is considered by many practical men as fully equal, or even supe- rior, to that grass. It is certainly a splendid grass and well adapted for the South, and should be largely used in all lawn and pasturage mixtures. (See Special Mixtures, page 62.)
