Counterfeit or inferior products: These stores may advertise popular branded products at significantly reduced prices but deliver counterfeit or substandard items that don’t meet expectations. If you’re interested in learning more about British and European grasses, there are some really good reference books out there. The “bible” of grasses is C.E. Hubbard’s Grasses; Colour Identification to the Grasses, Sedges, Rushes and Ferns of the British Isles by Francis Rose, Collins Guide to the Grasses, Sedges, Rushes and Ferns of Britain and Northern Europe by Fitter, Fitter and Farrer. You could also take a look at Collins Flower Guide by Streeter although it’s rather arrogant of me to suggest this as the grasses plates were all completed by me (with a great deal of help from David Streeter!) Some pads are made from recycled materials, while others are made from virgin materials and may be recyclable.

Some grasses put out lateral shoots, sometimes at quite a distance from the main plant. These are known as tillers, and grow from horizontal rhizomes, or root-like stems which grow along the ground. Grasses can rapidly colonise new habitats with this vegetative form of growth. This policy was last updated on Monday 1st June 2020 and is compliant with all the latest rules and regulations in regards to Data protection within the UK. Grass is a type of plant with narrow leaves growing from the base. Their appearance as a common plant was in the mid- Cretaceous period. There are 12,000 species now.

This is unusual for an online store that claims to offer trendy and fashionable products. Social media is an essential way for online businesses to interact with their customers, showcase their products, and build trust and credibility. The absence of social media activity and engagement suggests that Terminologe.com is hiding something or does not care about customer satisfaction.Yup. Believe it or not, I’ve only just noticed how some (okay, a lot) of my customer’s eyes glaze over whenever I start talking about turfgrass and its surrounding terminology. So here I am, just a boy, sitting in front of a computer, asking you to forgive me for any confusion I may have caused. And for making you nod your head in agreement in that way us Brits do to save face. On behalf of all lawn care experts, I am sorry. To help you better understand the lawn care gibberish I never realised I’ve been using. Here’s what the most common terms actually mean.

We’ve created this glossary to give you clear definitions of the terms used by the artificial grass industry. See, I told you it was a good day. Some might even say a seminal day in the history of humankind. Not many, but some.) Piperno, Doris E. & Sues, Hans-Dieter 2010. Dinosaurs dined on grass. Science. 310 (5751), pp. 1126–1128.

People have used grasses for a long time. People eat parts of grasses. Corn, wheat, barley, oats, rice and millet are cereals, common grains whose seeds are used for food and to make alcohol such as beer. A fully trained and experienced artificial grass installer, regularly assessed by NeoGrass for quality and customer service. Grasses have long leaves or blades, straight thin roots, a rounded (often hollow) stem (or culm), and a flowering spike. Lots of people may not realise that the top region of a grass plant happens to be the plant’s flowers and seeds. It becomes obvious when you think about a grass like wheat, but other species might fall under the radar.

Variety of panicle shape: Yorkshire Fog Holcus lanatus showing one panicle still within the sheath, one fully spread at maturity. Thanks for your comment, and for calling me a Prof – I wish! Oh those grasses are a nightmare! I’m not surprised you’re confused! It took me absolutely AGES to figure out my lemmas from my glumes, let alone the joys of articulation! I’m still a little hazy on grass flowers now. The articulation of grasses is like the grasshopper meaning; it’s a joint or line of weakness. One definition is: “articulate meaning jointed; usually fracturing easily at the nodes or point of articulation into segments”. SO it applies to the structure rather than to a process. You’re also right that the trees and herbs are less painful, although I properly love the grasses. I found the best way to learn species was to spend a day in a field with a botatnist who knew their species, although in these merry days of Covid19 such a thing seems little more than a pipe dream… countable , uncountable ) Any plant of the family Poaceae, characterized by leaves that arise from nodes in the stem and leaf bases that wrap around the stem, especially those grown as ground cover rather than for grain.

Fake online stores like Terminologe.com employ various tactics to deceive customers with low-priced products. Some common tactics include: Involves cleaning, removing debris, reinvigorating the fibres and topping up sand infill as necessary. Each individual spikelet, or flower, is made of distinct parts. The stalk of each flower is called the rachis, and flowers are arranged alternately, or in a zig-zag fashion along it.

Grasser. One who gives information. A 'squealer’ or ‘squeaker'. The origin derives from rhyming slang: grasshopper - copper; a 'grass' or 'grasser' tells the 'copper' or policeman." A layer of aggregate that allows liquids to drain freely through the sub base whilst preventing the artificial lawn from sinking. Usually consists of either granite or limestone chippings. Installed to varying depths from 50mm to 100mm. Soderstrom T.R. et al (eds) 1987. Grass systematics and evolution. Smithsonian Institution Press, Washington, D.C. When comparing the best artificial grass, you’ll need to look at more than just the realism of a product. The flowering part of a grass plant is called the panicle, flowering spike, inflorescence or flower-head (many of these terms also apply to other families of plant, and botanists use them somewhat differently at times, which can be confusing). These flowering heads consists of lots of tiny grass flowers which are called spikelets.
