Depending on where they are, you may want to look at zeroscape instead. That's very popular in the Southwest and requires little or no maintenance since the few plants that are there require little water or maintenance. The rest of the beds are made up of rocks, sand or other natural materials.
None of the fake grasses I've ever seen look very lifelike up close, and a lot of them have trouble getting the color right. Now it could easily be that I've only seen the lower end stuff, so don't take that as gospel.
Please keep us updated. I'd love to hear what you decide to go with.
