Broomcorn (Sorghum bicolor)
Sorghum is grown mainly in Africa and Asia for these edible grains, as a cereal. This variety, with its shiny grains in beige, brown, red or even black hues, can also be used to form magnificent ornamental bouquets. But that's not all! Once the grains have been harvested, the remaining stems can turn into a useful biodegradable broom. Variety obtained from Witches' Brooms.
