Help me Identify.. Please

12 years ago

I was told this 'grass' is Kentucky Bluegrass. I have some of it coming up in my plush fescue lawn and do not want it. It seems to be seeding like crazy. Can anyone confirm it is Kentucky Bluegrass and if so will a preemergent help in keeping it from germinating in fall?

I am pretty sure those are tall fescue seedheads. Are you mowing your grass, those look pretty tall.

+1 w/ tiemico - too tall and wrong color. Poa annua is pure white, while KBG is white with a blue/purplish tint to them.

I mention both because both form seedheads and are from the same family.

Sorry I didn't get back to this when you posted it earlier, Lauren. CBL (Crazy Busy Life) keeps me hoppin'! Glad Colleen returned...to remind me...and I think you have it! My book lists it as a cultivar name, so it'd be written Haworthia 'Resendeana'. The book says it appears to be a cultivar of H. coarctata & is often written incorrectly as a species.

I'd guess it to be some sort of crinum or a member of the Amaryllidaceae, not a true lily. I'd try posting this in that forum......you may get some better answers :-) Here is a link that might be useful: try here
