SORGHUM (Sorghum bicolor) 150 seeds per packet. Originally from Africa, which explains this plant’s preference for heat, and tolerance of drought. Sow in place, one half inch deep, in spring after conditions are warm. Rich soil with ample moisture suits the plant best. Allow 4-6 inch spacing in all directions. In autumn, before frost takes the plants, the canes can be cut in sections, stripped of their leaves, and pressed of their green juice which is then boiled down into syrup.
Honey Drip
Makes sweet delicious syrup. A very old sweet variety, 8'-10' stalks that are crushed for their juice, which is then boiled down in a large metal pan until it becomes sorghum syrup. This variety has become hard to find, but at one time this was one of the leading varieties in the South.
