Blooms & Form
Sorghum bicolor, or broomcorn, features tall, sturdy stalks with large, airy seed heads that range from rich reddish-brown to deep amber. These ornamental grasses grow tall, reaching up to 10 feet, and their unique seed heads add striking texture and color to dried floral arrangements or DIY brooms.

How to Grow

1. When to Plant: Sow seeds directly outdoors in late spring after the last frost, or start indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost.
2. Where to Plant: Choose a sunny location with well-draining soil. Broomcorn thrives in fertile soil with good drainage.
3. Planting Tips: Sow seeds 1/2 inch deep and space 8-12 inches apart. Water gently after planting and keep moist until seeds germinate.
4. Care Tips: Once established, broomcorn is drought-tolerant. Water moderately, and mulch around the base to retain moisture. Harvest when seed heads are fully mature and dry.

Grow Broomcorn for a striking, functional addition to your garden—whether as a natural element in your landscape or as the centerpiece of your next crafting project!
