Grow This Sweet Plant at Home!

Ever wish you could grow your own sugar at home? Now, you can!

Sugar Cane (Saccharum officinarum) is a clumping perennial grass with long, green leaves shooting up and out. Thick, jointed stalks reminiscent of bamboo characterize this tropical grass, commonly harvested for its sweet sap and used in commercial sugar and molasses production.

The Sugar Cane's stalks can grow in a range of hues, including yellow, red, dark green, and black, providing an excellent backdrop for the vibrant green foliage. When grown as a perennial, mature plants will flower with feathery bloom spikes.

While you may be able to harvest sugar in the right tropical conditions, this Sugar Cane plant also makes an excellent ornamental grass. It's perfect for patio containers, or as a natural privacy screen or border liner.

And this versatile plant doesn't need much to thrive. It will grow best in conditions close to its native Southeast Asia - hot, humid and sunny. If you live in a cooler area, you can use the Sugar Cane as an annual plant, or overwinter it indoors.

Whether you're looking for a patio plant, a unique privacy screen or a tropical annual, the Sugar Cane is a great choice.
