Pennisetum Prince   
From our Athens Select plant collection.
At last! This cultivar is a breakthrough in ornamental grasses. The purple foliage becomes even more purple as the summer gets hotter, quite a change to most plants that fade in summer heat. The habit is much fuller than other purple grasses and the growth is far more vigorous. 'Prince' doesn't flower unless winter temperatures remain above freezing. Outstanding in containers and as a landscape plant. A great replacement plant for Phormiums.
