Cultivar Notes - 'Purple Baron'

Simply majestic, 'Purple Baron's' shiny, purple-burgundy foliage is the richest, darkest of all millets. Add a vertical, contrasting punch to beds of pastel pink, white, or lavender blooming annuals. Though short, 'Purple Barron' has a full, thick, massive habit. Birds flock to its large flower spikes right up to frost.
