10 Seeds Egyptian Wheat Sorghum bicolor Heirloom Ornamental Grass
Egyptian Wheat is a tall, striking Sorghum bicolor selection grown for its sturdy stalks and large, drooping seed heads that add dramatic height and texture to gardens and floral arrangements. It is a warm-season annual grass that performs well in full sun and is often used as a vertical accent, screen, or back-of-border planting.
The plants produce broad leaves and prominent panicles that mature through the season, making them suitable for ornamental planting, dried arrangements, and wildlife-friendly landscapes. Grow in average, well-drained soil and provide consistent moisture during establishment; stems are vigorous and benefit from space and shelter from strong wind.
