Steve was not very happy with the online store he ordered it from, because it took very long, but it is available at Scenic Express now. Search their store for "Heki wildgrass". Like Steve I am using grasses #1840, 1841 & 1861. I saw all the Heki grasses at my LHS in person, but I thought these three looked the most realistic. Taking the size of the grass sheets into account, it is a bit cheaper than the Scenic Express/Mini-Nature Grass tufts. On my layout I used a bit more than 2 1/2 sheets so far: <!-- l --><a class="postlink-local" href="http://www.the-gauge.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=169&start=285">viewtopic.php?f=46&t=169&start=285</a><!-- l -->.
