This type of grass grows especially well in Kentucky's limestone soil, and the Bluegrass State's pastures feed many of the thoroughbred racehorses that are raised in the area. Some people are surprised to learn that blades of bluegrass are not actually blue, they're green like most other grasses. Its name comes from its purple-blue buds that provide fields of bluegrass with a bluish tint in the spring. When the grass is trimmed or mowed down and not allowed to go to seed, this effect may never be seen; as such, many people in the area may actually be growing bluegrass without even realizing it.
Bluegrass music is an acoustical genre that is derived from traditional Scottish, Irish and English music. In bluegrass bands, musicians playing instruments such as the guitar, banjo, fiddle, base and Appalachian dulcimer take turns improvising on the melody while the other musicians provide backing and rhythm. The commercial pioneer of this type of music was Bill Monroe, who hailed from the Bluegrass State. His band, known as Bill Monroe & His Blue Grass Boys, was popular for several decades starting in the 1930s. This style of music continues to be celebrated at annual festivals throughout Kentucky.
@talentryto- Though you can witness the beautiful color of the bluegrass fields and pastures of Kentucky any time of the year, I think that the colors are most vibrant throughout the months of spring and summer. After the winter is over and the dormant spring grass wakes up, its beautiful hue is at its best. This color stays true throughout the summer, until the cool weather of autumn sets in and leads to winter. If you want to see the grass of Kentucky at its bluest, you should schedule your trip during the warm, sunny months of spring and summer in my opinion. Talentryto October 15, 2014 I've heard a lot about the fields and pastures in Kentucky that have the appearance of being blue in color. I am planning a visit to the state so I can experience the reason behind the state's nickname for myself.

Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis) is the second most widely grown cool-season species in North Carolina because it has a dark green color, a medium to fine texture, and, due to its aggressive rhizome system, can recover from stresses. It prefers fertile, well-limed soils and full sun to moderate shade. Kentucky bluegrass is often mixed with other cool-season grasses like tall fescue to enhance the ability of the turfgrass stand to recover from stresses. Kentucky bluegrass is often confused with tall fescue and/or perennial ryegrass. However, Kentucky bluegrass has a boat-shaped leaf tip and distinctive light-colored lines on both sides of the midrib.
Students would only be required to be on campus for a face-to-face residency, and a senior recital, but they are welcome to rehearse and perform with the GSC bluegrass band if they are willing and able to do so. Alternative coursework is provided for students who wish to do it all online. Students can receive course credits for attending festivals or playing with a bluegrass band wherever you live. You could even earn this degree part time while touring with a band.
Anyone with a high school diploma is eligible to apply, and Megan says that there has already been international interest from potential students in Korea and Australia. Classes will include bluegrass history, business of music, recording and engineering, music theory, lessons, internships, learning and caring for string instruments, in additional to general education courses like English, History, Social Studies, or Science.
Right on cue, annual bluegrass is flowering in turfgrasses around the state. Concerns/complaints about annual bluegrass in lawns have been abundant this spring. Perhaps this weed infestation is worse this spring and there is likely a reason. It was due to weather conditions last fall. Now for the explanation.
First, a little about annual bluegrass biology. Annual bluegrass is a winter annual weed. That means it germinates in fall (even though you do not see it), and flowers in spring and dies as temperatures rise in late spring and early summer. In North Carolina, about 80% of annual bluegrass germinates in a 60-day window from September 1 to October 30. A good indicator of annual bluegrass germination is when the night temperatures start to cool a little in early September. The remainder germinates later in fall and in early spring. When germination occurs in September/October, the weed is often unnoticed due to the fact that it is a small seedling and most importantly, warm-season grasses are still green and actively growing and cool-season grasses are obviously still green. In short, annual bluegrass germinates and goes unnoticed. In the coldest part of winter with low light (short days with a low sun angle), annual bluegrass goes semi-dormant. In spring, as days are getting progressively longer and sunlight quality gets better, annual bluegrass grows rapidly, flowers, produces seed, and dies in May/June as temperatures get warm. The life cycle is complete.
Why could annual bluegrass be worse this spring The first thing to understand is annual bluegrass has a high light requirement for seed germination. Therefore, when sunlight penetrates through the turfgrass canopy, conditions for germination of annual bluegrass are enhanced. Another way of stating this is, the thinner the turfgrass canopy, the more annual bluegrass will germinate and the worse the problem will be the following spring.
Now for the explanation: Conditions for fall seeding and early growth of cool-season grasses last fall were less than ideal. Most will remember Hurricane Florence that dumped about 6 inches of rain in the triangle but that is only part of the story. Rainfall at RDU during calendar year 2018 was about 14.5 inches above normal (see rainfall chart, courtesy of WRAL.com). This excessive rainfall in fall was detrimental to good tall fescue (and other cool-season grass) establishment. The turfgrass seed germinated, but a lot of it died due to excessive wet conditions. In other words, the fall of 2018 was a bad fall for successful cool-season grass establishment. Therefore, the turfgrass canopy was open, sunlight penetrated to the soil surface and annual bluegrass germinated. Now, in April, we are seeing the results of the wet fall: more annual bluegrass flowering that germinated last fall. 59ce067264
