The following species in the grass genus Festuca, the fescues, are accepted by Plants of the World Online as of 2024. [1] This genus together with the ryegrass genus Lolium form the Festuca–Lolium complex known for its frequent hybridization, and which is further complicated by the presence of a fine-leaved fescue clade within Festuca that appears to be sister to a clade consisting of Lolium ...

Tall fescue is a long-lived tuft-forming perennial with erect to spreading hollow flowering stems up to about 165 cm (5'6") tall (exceptionally up to 200 cm) which are hairless (glabrous), including the leaf sheaths, but with a short (1.5 mm) ligule and slightly hairy (ciliate) pointed auricles that can wrap slightly around the stem. The leaf ...
This species was originally included within the genus Festuca, owing to the similarity of the flowers and inflorescences.However, there has been much debate since 1898 about its relationship to the genus Lolium, largely because of hybridization with Lolium perenne (species in separate genera are far less likely to form hybrids than those within the same genus).
