Broomcorn Seed

Price range: $4.00 through $40.00

This is broomcorn seed that has been grown & carefully selected for broom-quality traits at Bundle Sticks Farm for several years. When we started growing broomcorn, seed like this simply wasn’t available, so we started saving it ourselves, and now we’re happy to share small amounts with our broom-ing friends!

Description

After years of growing broomcorn and carefully saving seed from plants selected for broom-quality traits, we are ready to share some seed with other broom-makers and growers!

We originally obtained this seed from Caddy Supply. During the first couple of years, we were harvesting 40-50% of the plants for broom-making (plants with long brush (or ‘hurl’) and 4+ inches of stalk between the brush and the ‘knuckle’ or main stem of the plant). Now, after selecting seed for a few years, we are harvesting 90+% of the plants that have these traits. It is amazing what humans and plants can accomplish together in just a few seasons of cooperation.

Available in packet (approximately 100 seeds), half ounce (~600 seeds), ounce (~1,200 seeds), or 1/4 lb (~5,000 seeds).
