Purple Sprouts are available in the shops! You can get the seeds and grow your own though! (Some other shops are selling Brussels Sprout Rubine which is a reddy purple one but there are only 100 seeds in the packet for the same price!)
If you love the idea of growing pretty unusual veggies then these new sprouts are perfect!
Suttons Seeds has these sprouts available including the lovely looking purple ones and some frilly ones as well as normal ones!
