Well, have at it, Cheryl...I still think it won't work because the
stems are thick, almost a bit woody at the base and when cut short
they aren't soft, but stick up ..dunno how to describe it. I'd put
some in as a test in a remote corner:-)
My "lawn" is 85% broadleaf something or other. 20% moss and 5%
grass...but, it's green when mowed and from a distance, it looks
sorta like a "lawn"...
