The garden displays some beautiful ornamental grasses as well as flowers and shrubs. Fountain Grass (Pennisetum setaceum), shown here, is an extremely graceful plant that grows to 3 feet tall with airy flower panicles often tinged with purple. One common name, Purple Fountain Grass, now more often refers to newer varieties such as Pennisetum setaceum 'Rubra', which actually has purple stems. A deciduous perennial, Fountain Grass is easily propagated by division. An outstanding accent plant in any garden.
