Do they get the soft "plumes" in the spring or are they always the
same, as in your photo?

Here is a picture I snapped today of the grass that might be foxtail:

There *are* "plumes" and the grass grows in clumps.

They're kind of blue, when well watered - but not when not.
(My sprinklers are not fully working yet ... but I'm working on them
as we speak.)

PS: Picturepush seems to now require registration, so, I'm trying
flickr instead.

Definitely an ornamental grass. Which variety is a WAG.

This is "Blue Fescue"...
