The colourful foliage of Pennisetum 'Fireworks' is sure to make an impact in any garden display. Vibrant stripes of red, pink and green emerge before maturing to a rich shade of burgundy, providing a wide spectrum of colour. From mid-summer to autumn, arching purple flower spikes rise in a spectacular architectural display. The fluffy seedheads can be also cut to make elegant dried flowers.
Dark, burgundy foliage arches to form a neat clump, making an attractive feature in summer borders. From July, a profusion of long, fluffy, purple-red flower spikes rise above the glossy foliage. Pennisetum x advena 'Rubrum' is a fast growing variety that makes a spectacular display, contrasting beautifully with other grasses and perennials.
