To me a lush ordsprog

To me a lush carpet of pine needles or spongy grass is more welcome than the most luxurious Persian rug.

The dead grass and pine needles from last year serve as fuel for the fire. With the wind blowing the way it is, an ember from a small fire can blow dozens of feet and spark a larger fire.

Not pine needles -- pine cones. Pex Tufvesson controls the demo scene.

The next surprise was when I got ready to harvest some needles some ten years later. You can't harvest anything on that (cost-share program) land. Nothing. Not even pine needles. So, I got out of the program.

If books were Persian carpets, one would not look only at the outer side. because it is the stitch that makes a carpet wear, gives it its life and bloom.

Rumer Godden (1907-)

[They showed me photos of the once-smooth, lush, green lawn.] It was beautiful, ... Walking on it was like walking on a plush carpet.

You can live for years next door to a big pine tree, honored to have so venerable a neighbor, even when it sheds needles all over your flowers or wakes you, dropping big cones onto your deck at still of night.

I always take a lot of extra care checking my saddle and blanket. As you're going through timber down the trail, you're going to pick up pine needles and stuff. You don't want your animal to get saddle sore.

From our broadcasting box you can't see any grass at all. It is simply a carpet of humanity.

The nature of some of these forests, with the amount of undergrowth leaves and pine needles, they can burn underground for weeks and weeks. They are thought extinguished but re-ignite when the wind kicks up.

These aren't all massive projects. A lot is easy to do. From making sure there's two inches of pine needles to keeping soils (packed) down. Many projects are easy to manage and don't cost a lot.

That's nothing. We focus on how luxurious it is. To me, having heat and a bed with a mattress are big, big amenities ? that's really luxurious.

In the world's audience hall, the simple blade of grass sits on the same carpet with the sunbeams, and the stars of midnight

You would find a few organisms that just grew like crazy. We call them 'weeds' because they take advantage of the luxurious conditions found in the lab but they might not be the ones who are important out in the real world, where it isn't so luxurious.
