dead grass

Brown withered turf

Dead grass is grass that has dried out and lost its green color, turning brown or yellow.

It may result from drought, dormancy, disease, or neglect: The lawn was nothing but dead grass by August.

Dead grass crunches underfoot and poses a fire hazard in dry conditions.
