Are you refering to me, meaning the original post?
Where do you live exactly, if I might ask?
Because no, this is NOT what winter looks like if there is no snow. At least not in Switzerland, Austria, Germany, and pretty much any other central or eastern european country.
Like I said, most fields with grass stay green all year long.
Fields with crops are different, they are often brown (ploughed) with no crops.
But a lot of fields stay green all year long in these areas. Grass does not die in winter. Not even under the snow.
Things might get pretty much all brown above 4000-5000 ft. But not below.
