     States green grass is a memory -- but it need not be. Springtime 
     will be here before you know it, and with it will come grass: 
     an incredibly complex, yet rarely talked about, mainstay of 
     American landscapes. Here we have covered some of the most 
     interesting aspects of this adaptable green plant (the front 
     lawn variety).</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.sixwise.com/newsletters/07/01/17/15_things_you_never_thought_you_needed_to_know_about__grass.htm"><P> A 10,000-square-foot lawn contains six grass plants
