I'm sure if you post your current situation (what kind of grass you have, how much sun vs. shade, how much traffic, etc.) and what you want to achieve (and maybe all of that in a new thread), you will get some excellent advice here on finding good seeds for your project. And I would be surprised if any of that advice includes Scotts HTB - obviously you care about the quality of your seed since you read the labels - and you can do much better than HTB I am sure. By way of disclosure I am new to learning about the high quality grass seeds available now, but the regulars on this forum are an amazing resource, and you can learn a lot fast by listening to them. At least I think I have, and am relying on their advice for a major renovation this year. Good luck, Paul

Like a few here, I'd much rather grocery shop than shop for clothes!!! I'm not a one-stop shopper though. My main shopping is done at the Commissary at MCAS Miramar, once a month. That's what we call "Stock up". Then we shop Wal-Mart's food section (limited; we don't have a Super Wal-Mart yet, and though they're planning one, the town criers are lobbying against it). I shop sales and fresh stuff at Stater Bros and Henry's (like a Wild Oats), but will only go into Vons if they have a really good sale on something I need/want (like the red seedless grapes they have today). Wal-Mart, Stater Bros, Henry's and Vons are all within a half mile of my house so gas is not at issue. If Albertsons has something good, there's one on my way home from work, but normally that's not a stop. To Claudia near Bakersfield: I hear ya. My DH and I used to live in a small town in Arizona with one grocery store. Decent grocery prices were 70 miles away, down in Tucson or in Phoenix. We used to make a once-a-week run to Tucson for a class I had to take, so we'd take a cooler along and stop at the grocery store before class. Also, my daughter broke a bottle of Worcestershire in one of our cars about 6 years ago. Whew! It smelled until the day she wrecked that car! DonnaR/CA

It's beautiful

And like hens and chicks (Sempervivums), these are a very hardy, outdoor fleshy evergreen perennial. They are NOT a houseplant!
