LOL at the title :-) Thanks for taking part and posting photos - it has been great to see grasses in so many gardens. As for names it really doesn’t matter – they are a bonus :-)
However, at a glance your first grass could possibly be a type of Carex. I would say the second is a variegated Carex. The red grass is very likely to be one I have - Uncinia uncinata ‘rubra’ and the grey-blue is most likely to be a blue fescue grass :-)
I don’t remember the full names of all my grasses but I have a few labels and my books and Google helped with the rest. I have really enjoyed this posting - thanks again :-)
Hi Jan: I love that you are growing a grass in a container! I may have to resort to that with Hakonechloa! Come visit my grasses if you get a chance. p.s. I want to visit Wales!

Nice Jan. I bought one a few years ago that looked like the one in the first picture. It didn't survive. Forget what it was called.
