red annual tall grass

You know that grass. The kind in beds all over the place and sold for big bucks in pots in the fall (when the seed heads are out and look so pretty). I'm looking for a place that has this grass for sale in 4" or less pots.
Any suggestions?
I use it in a very hot bed in the front of my house along with the very light green licorice plant. It do it in a 'mass' planting - looks wonderful and is very drought resistant.

Purple Fountain Grass is usually in the local nurseries near the end of May. As you are aware, it is frost sensitive, so this may be why the nurseries don't bring it in until there is a good chance that it will succeed.
