Saccharum officinarum Blue Ribbon Sugar Cane
Saccharum officinarum Blue Ribbon Sugar Cane is a form of sugar cane
used to make sugar. It is named blue ribbon due to the color of the
stem/trunks which turn blue to almost purple in color. The leaves are
narrow grass like and are also green to blue in color. Plants can grow
up to 8 feet tall and can look very ornamental if the lower stems are
kept clean to show off the dark colors. Great for tropical landscapes or
large containers. Makes for an interesting piece an not to mention nice
to cut and chew on if you want something sweet. Plants are in 3 to 4
inch pots.
