JOHN MASCARO ’ S PHOTO QUIZ
ANSWER
From page 17
The green St Augustine turf on this home lawn , by the front driveway area and sidewalk , is actually quite amusing as to its cause . I took this photo while walking through a neighborhood in Tampa , Florida . It was during a very dry period , and this homeowner had not fertilized his lawn in more than a year . He owned four Yorkshire Terriers that would only venture a foot or two off the paved surfaces to relieve themselves . As you can see , the lawn was in dire need of nutrition and seemed to appreciate the fact that this homeowner had four dogs . It is a great photo showing how a little fertilizer can go a long way in drought situations .
