We would like to see better photos of the grass inflorescence (flowering part) and also the roots, if possible. Can you lay the grass flower down on a piece of paper next to a ruler or coin and take a clear photo, please? Does the grass stay in sparse clumps or does it spread/creep by running roots? Is it easy or difficult to pull up? What are the conditions where it is growing? (Full sun/shade?) Is it something you are trying to manage on a lawn or in a natural area of the property?

For this grass, it would help if you could provide a clear photo of the inflorescence/seed heads.

Lisa,
Unfortunately, these photos are too small and do not open to a larger size to show enough details. This does not look like any of the common grassy lawn weeds or invasive weeds that we usually see, and I wasn't able to find a match in the VA Tech Weed ID key. Grasses with a delicate open panicle-type inflorescence like this could be in the genus Glyceria, Eragrostis, or Panicum (among others). You can explore the species on the Maryland Biodiversity Project website. https://www.marylandbiodiversity.com/viewChecklist.php?family=Poaceae

Grasses are notoriously difficult to identify (even more so just by photos). In Anne Arundel County, you have the option to bring in plant samples to your county Extension office for identification. Sample drop-off instructions are listed on the website if you would like to pursue this option. https://extension.umd.edu/locations/anne-arundel-county
