    Malar - Looks like your sugarcane is doing well. It seems happy next to the star fruit tree. Have you extracted any sugar juice from it yet?

    I have this one too. Sometimes I boil drink with it.

    Sugarcane is certainly something we couldn't grow over here in the UK. How do you harvest and prepare it?

    Nice that you can grow it. Like someone else asked, it would be interesting to see when you harvest how you use it.

    This grows along the Texas coast, but I've never thought to grow it here. I can remember as a little girl my dad would cut some off so I could chew it. Thanks for the memories! Enjoyed seeing your sugarcane.

    Sugar cane for sweet memories. It also signifies a sweet life and when it grows tall, may you reach new heights and ranking in your careeer! Speaking about sugar cane eating, I don't think my set of teeth is strong enough for the chomping and chewing and I hate it when the residue get between the gums. Better drink from juice :>)
