Millet, Purple Majesty

Millet, Purple Majesty
AAS Gold winner 2003. Head-high, dark purple and very handsome.
Purple Majesty makes a dramatic centerpiece in almost any planting. A beautiful and economical alternative to fountain grass, the shiny, corn-like leaves start out green and turn intense dark purple. In late summer, 12″ cattail-like flower spikes are dusted with gold. Group several closely together in flower beds, or grow a single plant in a large urn or container. Use young spikes in fresh flower bouquets or mature flower heads in dried arrangements. Grows best with the deepest color in full sun.
