Recently I've see some high quality Astroturf and it really is very realistic, far from the shiny nylon stuff you used to see. The test is do people get down to feel it to confirm one way or the other. Yes, they do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227064496185547313.post-67064668678420664972017-07-08T04:23:32.161+01:002017-07-08T04:23:32.161+01:00110 F? That's 43 C!

As I comment now my husband is mowing our 'meadow/orchard' constantly trying to improve its quality and up its greenness. As soon as the heat continues for more than a few days he worries that it will die and never recover.
