A row of Pennisetum!

I am not especially enamored of Pennisetum, but no one can deny that the flowerheads of these grasses are usually very pretty, which makes it a favorite ornamental.

Here 刘伟 lines up quite a few samples for our delectation (from left to right):

Pennisetum macrourum, P. setaceum 'rubrum', P. setaceum ‘Rueppelii’, P. orientale 'Tall', P. alopecuroides 'Purple', P. alopecuroides ‘Viridescens’, P. alopecuroides 'Hamelin'
