Hi Victoria,

Just thought I'd let you know that the purple fountain grass seeds that
you sent me sprouted yesterday.


Good, but they aren't purple fountain grass! They are Pennisetum setaceum, but
not 'Rubrum.' These are exactly like the purple, only the plumes are white and
foliage green. They reseed readily and I have a farm here of them!

Thanks again. I went back and searched the ever expanding internet again.

I seem to have the reoccurring problem of mounds of mis-information
everywhere. Took me a long time to realize that there is a HUGE
difference between brugmansia and datura. According to many websites,
magazine articles and books....they're the same plant.
;-)
