Do you know if those grasses are Festuca glauca ?

Hello guys
Can you recognize this ornamental grass? Is festuca glauca or helictotrichon sempervirens ?
I bought many as festuca glauca but it doesn’t look as blue as the photos on the web.
Today I accidentally found helictotrichon sempervirens while searching and I am afraid that the guy who sold me this grass made mistake and gave me helictotrichon sempervirens than festuca.
As days pass some of them look blue but no so light blue and I am wondering…
