Annual fescue
Vulpia myuros
Annual fescue is a fast-growing, fine-leaved grass that establishes quickly in disturbed soils, roadsides, and open sunny areas. It requires minimal care and tolerates a range of soil types, though it performs best with moderate moisture. It is most often used in erosion control or as a temporary cover grass rather than an ornamental planting.
