Egyptian Wheat

Egyptian wheat is an impressive member of the sorghum family, reaching heights of 8 to 12 feet, making it a standout choice for wildlife cover. While it offers some food value during the tassel stage, its true strength lies in providing thick, protective shelter for game birds, particularly quail. This plant excels in creating an ideal habitat, as it not only offers excellent cover but also produces seeds for an extended period, lasting 180 to 200 days. With seeds maturing approximately 110 days after emergence, Egyptian wheat ensures a reliable food source. Additionally, its robust structure makes it perfect for enhancing quail and deer blinds, making it an essential addition to any wildlife-friendly landscape.
