The grass turns brown here in Winter no matter what.
I think the discussion was referring to cool season grass (fescue,
bluegrass, ryegrass, etc.) which normally stays green during the winter.
I believe ryegrass too will turn brown in the winter unless it is the annul
winter rye some use to have a green lawn in cold weather.
