Plant of the Day

Tuesday 29 September 2020

The long lasting flowers of Aster × frikartii 'Mönch' contrast with the masses of pinky white plumes of the ornamental grass Pennisetum orientale (oriental fountain grass). Both these herbaceous perennial are clump forming and thrive in a sunny location with a moist but well drained soil.

Pennisetum 'Rubrum' (Purple Fountain Grass, Red Fountain Grass). Also known as Purple Fountain Grass, Red Fountain Grass, Burgundy Fountain Grass. A large clump of 'Rubrum' swaying in the breeze can be quite an eye-catcher!

Fountain grass grows in dense, symmetrical clumps that can get 3-4 ft tall and 2-3 ft across with a fountain of feathery plumes flowing out of the foliage. 'Cupreum' has reddish stems and leaves, and copper-colored plumes. 'Rubrum' and 'Purpureum' are larger, to 5 ft tall, with dark purple leaves and burgundy-red, nodding plumes to 15 in long. 'Eaton Canyon' is a miniature, to 30 in high, with burgundy-red foliage and plumes. These cultivars generally do not set seed, and therefore are good choices for tropical and subtropical climates where the species could become invasive. #Africanfountaingrass,  #Tenderfountaingrass,  #Fountaingrass, # Purplefountaingrass #Cenchrussetaceus   #Poaceae  #Grassfamily #Pennisetumspectabile, #Pennisetum setaceum,  #Pennisetum parisii, #fountaingrass,  #Park,  #Park plants, #Park grass, #Garden plants, #plant, #Rajasthan, #India #blossom,  #plantphotography #plantlover #nature #naturephotography #naturelovers #botany #botanylovers #botanyphotography #subhashudhyanajmer #subhashudhyan #IndianPark #rajasthanpark #parkplants #parks # 📷--- @ankityogi9 (at Rajasthan, India) https://www.instagram.com/p/CT-EnHrs5hM/?utm_medium=tumblr
