Pennisetum Rubrum
Graceful tassels of mushroom-pink arch over a striking mound of linear deep burgundy foliage. Commonly known as Purple Fountain Grass, this dramatic grass makes an impressive pot specimen or accent feature in the garden planted amongst other grasses, succulents and perennials. This sterile cultivar will never become a weed.
How to grow
Grow in full sun for maximum foliage colour and contrast. Extremely drought tolerant, preferring a well drained soil. Cut back spent flower stems and foliage to around 30cm in late winter or early spring..
