The article says: "Another great idea -- replace your lawn with a colorful, tasty landscape. It's lower maintenance, less energy and might even encourage your neighbors to take on the same project! Our favorite way to go: Start a orchid for delicious apples." I am appalled that any established business in the market of advertising and media cannot hire a proofreader and that whoever wrote that little diddy knows nothing of grammar. First of all, it should have read "an orchid"; however, I am absolutely certain this SHOULD have read "Start AN ORCHARD for delicious apples."
