Several seed catalogs describe it as "easy to grow from seed" so I'd guess it would be invasive unless birds eat every last seed. Margaret Lauterbach
Hybrid ornamental millet 'Purple Majesty' won the AAS Gold Medal award for 2003. According to the plant description, it has 8" to 12" shiny purple flower spikes "which provide many seeds for the birds". Does this plant have the potential to become invasive? I found a lot of promotional info on the web, but not the botanical info I seek.
