Thanks. My version (2.8.14) doesn't have the particular tool that you's called up, though. I had increased the canvas size to somewhere near appropriate, but couldn't make the extra space an adjunct to the increased area. So I did the usual thing, pressed every button that seemed to have something to do with it, and, eventually I had something, where, if I applied a brush tool, it applied to the newly created area as well as the original.
So, I was in. The clone tool worked fine. I conjectured that simply pasting a strip of grass would show, since it would be identical in minor parts to that above. By shifting the clone focus, it added a random bit of the existing foreground, and it looks fine. I really must read my Gimp Bible, but it's so imposing a tome for my usual minor changes. It usually adds about two hours of reading to ten minutes of work!
