Common name:Bull Grass
Botanical name:Muhlenbergia emersleyi
This Muhlenbergia is a cool season, clumping grass with blue-green, course foliage. It grows about 2 to 3 feet tall and wide. Its plume emerges late summer and is purple, though it turns a silvery white as the season progresses. The whole plant turns tan with the first hard frost. A southwest native, it is very heat and drought tolerant once established.

Check your irrigation controller and reduce watering times if necessary.
