Most Manning's n values are much less than 1 (one). Table 5.4 in Ward and Trimble (1995. Environmental Hydrology, 2nd ed.) gives an n value of 0.8 for dense underbrush, which is the largest value in their table. Grasslands range from 0.15 to 0.41; grassed waterways 0.025-0.035. (I don't know why the grassed waterway would be so much less than grasslands...)
Just FYI,
