Purple Fountain Grass (Pennisetum setaceum rubrum) is an attractive ornamental grass that features dark burgundy-black foliage and purplish-pink flower spikes that last through the winter. Its green foliage is the perfect plant to use as a specimen or mass planting perennial. During the mid-summer to early fall, Purple Fountain Grass's stunning foliage will turn a bronze-copper shade and will continue to complement other surrounding plants.
Purple Fountain Grass does best when planted in full sun, nutrient-rich soil, and in an area where it has plenty of space to spread. Unlike the rest of its species, this plant does not reseed. In cooler regions, the plant is typically treated as an annual instead. This is important to consider before planting because the likelihood of its return each year in zones six and lower is minimal.
