Poa pratensis, known as Smooth Meadow-grass, Common Meadow Grass or Kentucky Bluegrass, is a perennial species of grass native to Europe, Asia, northern Africa and North America.

Poa pratensis forms a valuable pasture plant, characteristic of well-drained, fertile soil. It is also used for making lawns in parks and gardens. Poa is Greek for fodder.

 

The name Kentucky Bluegrass derives from its flower heads, which are blue when the plant is allowed to grow to its natural height of two to three feet.[1]

 

The rootstock is creeping, with runners. The broad, blunt leaves tend to spread at the base, forming close mats.

 

Poa pratensis is a herbaceous perennial plant 30–70 centimetres (12–28 in) tall. The leaves have boat-shaped tips, narrowly-linear, up to 20 centimetres (8 in) long and 3–5 millimetres (0.12–0.20 in) broad, smooth or slightly roughened, with a rounded to truncate ligule 1–2 millimetres (0.039–0.079 in) long. The conical panicle is 5–20 centimetres (2–8 in) long, with 3 to 5 branches in the basal whorls; the oval spikelets are 3–6 millimetres (0.12–0.24 in) long with 2 to 5 florets, and are purplish-green or grey. They are in flower from May to July, compared to Annual Meadowgrass (Poa annua) which is in flower for eight months of the year.

 

The ligule is extremely short and square ended, making a contrast with Annual Meadowgrass (Poa annua) and Rough Meadowgrass {Poa trivialis) in which it is silvery and pointed.

 

Poa compressa is a similar species.

 

Poa pratensis is the type species of the grass family Poaceae.

 

There are two ill-defined subspecies:

 

* Poa pratensis ssp. pratensis — temperate regions

* Poa pratensis ssp. colpodea — Arctic

 

I loved hiking to and photographing this beautiful fall near the Pisgah Wildlife Education Center near Brevard, NC. This fall reminds me alot of a waterfall in WV due to the surrounding moss and scenery. This waterfall is Waterfall on Cedar Rock Creek. Enjoy!

I was wanting to get a nice photo of a "baby bottom" then I thought I could get away with my derrière - but no grandkids about today and then I thought ..... no my second choice would be to scary!!

 

So, I did shave and my face is, of course, as soft as Joshua's little bottom ~ last minute substitute, my razor!!

A bit of post-processing on this, to give it a slight antique hint and to darken the tones.
