| Abstract/Contents: | "Lawns became popular hundreds of years ago when the early landscape architects included them in designs for royal estates and parks in England. They were meant to give people a pleasant environment in which to walk, picnic and play sports." Continues a brief history of the movement of lawns into North America and gives several reasons for their popularity today. Includes a figure listing seven environmental benefits of turfgrass. |
