What grass is that? Ask the AI.

Snap a close-up of a few blades — AI names your grass species in seconds. Kentucky Bluegrass, Bermuda, Tall Fescue, Zoysia — in plain English, not Poa pratensis.

🔍

Close-ups only — the AI needs to see blade width, edges, and texture. A photo from standing height won’t work.

How it works

1

Take a close-up photo

Fill the frame with the grass blades. Include a seed head if you can — flowers and seed heads make a huge difference to accuracy. Natural daylight, no flash.

2

Upload right here — no app needed

Tap 'Snap a Photo' on this page and upload. Nothing to install, nothing to sign up for. Works on iPhone, Android, tablet, or desktop.

3

Get the plain-English name

We say 'Kentucky Bluegrass' — not Poa pratensis. A confidence score and photo comparison let you verify before acting on the result.

4

Get a care plan that fits

Cool-season vs warm-season grasses need totally different treatment. Use the result to build your free 12-month AI lawn care plan — tailored to your species.

Tips for Better Results

  • Get close — fill the frame with the grass blades
  • Use natural daylight, avoid flash
  • If your grass has seed heads, include them in the photo
  • Photograph a single grass type, not a mixed area
  • Avoid photos of freshly mowed grass — longer blades are easier to identify

Common Lawn Grasses

🌱

Kentucky Bluegrass

Cool-season. Dark blue-green, boat-shaped tips. Needs 4–6 hours of sun and regular watering.

🌿

Tall Fescue

Cool-season. Coarse, wide blades. Drought-tolerant and shade-friendly — a great "default" grass.

☀️

Bermuda Grass

Warm-season. Fine texture, loves heat and sun. Goes dormant (brown) in cool weather.

🌾

Zoysia

Warm-season. Dense and slow-growing. Tolerates traffic, heat, and light shade.

☘️

Perennial Ryegrass

Cool-season. Shiny, fine-bladed. Fast to germinate — often mixed with bluegrass.

🌴

St. Augustine

Warm-season. Broad, flat blades. Popular in the South — shade tolerant but needs water.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to download an app?

No download needed. The grass identifier works entirely in your web browser — on iPhone, Android, tablet, or desktop. Nothing to install, no account required.

How does the grass identifier work?

Upload a close-up photo of your grass and our AI, powered by PlantNet, analyzes the blade shape, texture, and color to identify the species. For best results, photograph the grass blades up close in natural light.

How accurate is it?

Accuracy depends on photo quality. Close-up photos of grass blades in good lighting typically return results with 50-90% confidence. Including seed heads or flowers greatly improves accuracy.

How many searches can I do?

You can identify up to 20 plants per day, completely free. The limit resets every 24 hours. No account or sign-up required.
