"Fake Grass Gains Ground in Calif. Amid Concerns About Ongoing Drought" [1]

"HERMOSA BEACH, CALIF. — Christopher Knight makes no apologies: He likes a green lawn. But the actor best known for playing middle son Peter on “The Brady Bunch” also wants to do his part to conserve water.

The solution? Fake grass.

'It feels totally different,' Knight, 57, marveled one day last week, stepping barefoot onto a deceptively lifelike expanse of newly installed plastic turf. 'Frankly, I’m not really sure why more people haven’t started doing it.'"

Rob Kuznia reports for the Washington Post May 23, 2015. [2]
