Crimson

Cool nights in the desert are producing some brilliant colors during the day. This patch was spotted in a deep natural ravine which has aided in keeping life hydrated.

The Crimson fountaingrass

''Pennisetum setaceum'', commonly known as crimson fountaingrass, is a C4 perennial bunch grass that is native to open, scrubby habitats in East Africa, tropical Africa, Middle East and SW Asia. It has been introduced to many parts of the world as an ornamental plant, and has become an invasive species in some of them. It is drought-tolerant, grows fast, reaches 3 feet in height, and has many purple, plumose flower spikes.
