 | | The Importance of Grass | | by Swapna P, Mar 30, 2008 | | The grass family is considered the most successful of flowering plants with about 9000 species. The main reason for their survival is that they grow quickly and soon produce seed. Their shape and structure require very little space and if trampled upon generally regain their upright position. They even continue growing after being heavily grazed on by animals. | | Comments(1) Liked It: 1 |
