Also known as purple fountain grass, Pennisetum x advena 'Rubrum’ ('Cupreum') is a popular drought tolerant grass that features long, slender leaves that are a rich, deep maroon color, which intensifies as the plant matures. The foliage forms a graceful, arching mound that is approximately 3 ft. tall and wide. In the summer, the plant produces long, fluffy, arching plumes that rise above the foliage on slender stems.

In the winter this warm-season clumping grass will go dormant in cooler climates and the red leaves will transition to a straw-like color
