This award winner is quite a departure for ornamental growers. The corn-like plant grows attractive deep purple foliage, stems and flower plumes. Each plant produces one to three main stems on tall plants with 12 to 14" plumes, complemented by a few secondary shoots. 

Under full to partial sun, they produce the deepest purple color with narrower leaves. Less light produces wider and greener leaves. Best suited for 4" containers and higher, Purple Majesty makes an excellent garden focal point, or can be used in mass plantings. The flower spikes can be cut and used to enhance flower arrangements. 

The ornamental millet Purple Majesty variety is easy to grow, with the seeds only taking three to five days to germinate under warm conditions. It is best to start growing ornamental millet seeds indoors a few weeks before the day of the last frost. You can move the plant outdoors once the soil has warmed for proper growth and higher germination rates.

This stunning, fast-growing plant performs best with exposure to full sun in well-drained and evenly moist, fertile soils. It can also withstand droughts and dry soil, making it suitable for many growing environments.
