When I need close-up grass in a scene, I #declare a 1 foot by 1 foot mesh of
randomly perturbed triangles, and then use as many copies of the mesh as I
need for the meadow or lawn.  I use boxes with an appropriately scaled jade
pattern for distant lawn grass, as the short "real" grass and the boxes
blend together well.  I haven't tried to do anything with grass that is tall
enough that it curves noticeably, however.
