This corn is actually a type of sorghum. Long seed heads in many varying colours are very ornamental if you don't feel ambitious enough to make your own brooms. Beautiful rich-colored red, orange, brown, and black. Broom corn is not related to corn so can be planted near it without worrying about cross-polination. Make beautiful fall decorations or leave standing through the winter for a feast for the birds. http://wpt.org/Wisconsin-Gardener/Segments/making-broom-broom-corn.
