Festuca brevipila
Also called Fescue, Fescues
Festuca brevipila, also known as hard fescue, is a species of grass which can be found everywhere in Canada and in both the Eastern and Central United States (except for Arkansas, Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and South Dakota).
The species derives its common name from its reputation as the "hardiest" of the fescue family. It does well in poor soils and is "very drought tolerant", growing better with deep and infrequent watering.
