Re: gardenchat DIGEST V1 #226


Kitty, I'm growing the Purple Majesty Millet for the first time this year.  
Liked the purple foliage.  Didn't know if it would do well here....but so 
far, it is thriving despite our unusual dry and above average heat 
conditions.  Has not shown any signs of stress.  Nice clumper, and has filled 
out quite well, and continues to produce one inflorescence after another.  I 
think you will enjoy it.
