I think in the spring, I'm going to get some of this var. of Saccharum:
Shaman Australis Botanicals

Violaceum looks very beautiful, but one thing I've read about it is that it's not quite as hardy as other officinarums, so I might even have to overwinter it in a GH. :/
Maybe its' worth it, if it looks like that.

Curious if anyone has grown it and if it's as sweet as other var's?
