Grass often dies near roads that have been salted to remove ice in winter because salt has spread to the grass cover. Then the water goes into the ice, because the grass is attracted to the salty ice water. Consequently, it dehydrates the plant cell, removing excess water, so it dies, as it can no longer perform the proper function of the cell.
