If you're growing it, call it Meaux Grass!

Vaseygrass would have a whitish midvain and rough leaf margins.

Switchgrass would have white hairs on it as well as the white midvein DB described.

Feel like the 1st is a Paspalum. May be P. dilatatum (dallisgrass), need to see it in a few days when its heading out.

Could the first pic be young Raoul grass? If so get rid of it before it takes over everything!

I was just commenting on the ideas for both of them. I'm not the best at grasses, but that first one definitely looks like a paspalum.

The second one could be a panicum.
