Millet Jade Princess

Millet Jade Princess is a member of the grass family.  It's wide leaves feature a chartreuse color that stands out on its own.  Add to that, brilliant, puffy, flower plumes, Jade Princess is stunning.  It works really well as a backdrop, but you can plant other items behind, for this millet only gets 48" tall at the top of its plumes.  The majority of the foliage is well below that height.  Millet likes the full sun, and this Jade Princess prefers warmer temperatures.  The bed we planted this Jade Princess in, has other colors of Purple and Coral, both which stand out against the green of the millet.  It is a plant that is easy to plant, will spread out and cover space, and looks good throughout.
