Sugarcane is mainly grown for commercial sugar and for its by-products like molasses, ethanol, press mud and for co generation of power. The present day cultivated sugarcane are complex hybrids tailor made for commercial sugar with high yield, disease resistance, high sucrose content and with maximum juice extraction. During the breeding and selection process the chewing quality, the attractive rind colour and stripeness that were predominant in the ‘noble’ canes have been lost. This paper discusses the potential of the noble cane collection for ornamental and chewing purpose. The study revealed that among the striped clones the Creoula Rayada, Striped Mauritius, Chittan, Louisiana striped, Rayada, Preanger striped, 57 NG 149 and 57 NG 172 have the potential as ornamental chewing canes with beautiful rind and among the clones with purple coloured leaves 28 NG 13, IJ 76-552, IJ 76-556 and NG 77-117 were with better sucrose content and CCS yield
