Red's Red Sweet Sorghum Heirloom Seeds

Home > Sorghum > Red's Red Sweet

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.

Red's Red Sweet
This heirloom has been grown in northern Missouri for many years. More adapted to northern climates than many sorghums. Makes excellent syrup. From our friend Steve Salt.
