That almost looks like ours and I think it's called Morning Star or something like that. I'll have to go back through my tags and see if I can find it.

Looks like "Pink Muhly Grass" (pronounced mule-y) Muhlenbergia capillaris.
Gorgeous and bloomin' right now in these parts.

actually, where I am , I have to water it a bit on dry summers and improve my crappy soil. It might do better on the other side of my house. It sure didn't like thew caliche. My intown one just bloomed and bloomed and rewarded me nonstop in the fall.
