Tree roots are better painted, covered with long 

 grass, especially the root of beeches. I wonder 

 with what long grass would be better covered when 

 one paints it. 



It seems that if there is no red harp-string of 

 the required thickness, purple lake applied to a 

 yellow one does the trick.
