Thus in nature, the fungus does not live outside the plant. Viability of the fungus in seeds is limited; typically, after a year or two of seed storage the fungal endophyte mycelium has died, and seeds germinated will result in plants that are endophyte-free. [16] The tall fescue–endophyte symbiosis confers a competitive advantage to the plant.
Vulpia myuros, the annual fescue, [1] or rat's-tail fescue, [2] is an annual flowering plant in grass family Poaceae. It was probably originally native to Eurasia, but it can now be found nearly worldwide as a naturalized species .

Like other cool-season grasses, it grows during the spring and fall, and remains dormant for the rest of the year. This helps maintain ground cover before the warm season grasses begin to grow and after they die off.
F. glauca is a perennial [1] clump-forming ornamental grass noted for its glaucous, finely-textured, blue-gray foliage. The foliage forms a dome-shaped, porcupine-like tuft of erect to arching, needle-like 9-ribbed blades, [3] radiating upward and outward to a length of 140–180 mm.

Festuca rubra, as red fescue or creeping red fescue, is cultivated as an ornamental plant for use as a turfgrass and groundcover. It can be left completely unmowed, or occasionally trimmed for a lush meadow-like look. There are many subspecies, and many cultivars have been bred for the horticulture trade.
