Wiesen-Rispengras
"Poa pratensis" is a herbaceous perennial plant tall. The leaves have boat-shaped tips, narrowly linear, up to long and broad, smooth or slightly roughened, with a rounded to truncate ligule long. The conical panicle is long, with 3 to 5 branches in the basal whorls; the oval spikelets are 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. "Poa pratensis" has a fairly prominent mid-vein (center of the blade).
