Grass Identification

Hello all, I just bought a home in St. Louis (zone 6b) and the lawn is in serious need of care.

It looks like there are many varieties of grass but this seems to be the most prominent. I'd like to know how to care for my lawn but I need to identify the grass first.

Thanks!

This is a good resource to id the most common lawn grasses. It looks like bluegrass because of the V shape of the leaf. The most common is a mix of bluegrass, fescue and rye in northern climates.
