Doesn't it just depend on what you want to end up with? If you want something people can cut into and eat that tastes like icing, go with buttercream. If it's ok for it to be hard, then royal. I think both will pipe the same, but the royal may give you sharper edges.

The one time I used the tip to make grass I used buttercream. You can see it on my jungle cake. It turned out great. It crusted a little so it held up well but you could still eat it without it being firm like royal icing.
