Pennisetum setaceum 'Rubrum'
Purple fountain grass
Fine red-purple blades arch outward in a fountain shape and colour the whole clump. Slender red-pink plumes carry above the foliage on thin stems. Often used as a seasonal accent in containers and summer bedding, where the dark colour works against pale stone and gravel.

About sizes
CLT is a container volume in litres, VRL the same in a decorative red container. M is a field-grown plant lifted with its root ball, MGR the same grown in isolation and wire-balled. RN is bare root, available in the dormant season. T is a full standard and POT a planter. Heights are given as a range in centimetres; trunk girth is the circumference measured at one metre. A larger container is not always dearer: a trained or grafted form of the same volume costs more than a bush, and the form is named on the row.
