Sweet Corn - Anasazi Rainbow - Seeds

Multi-coloured sweet corn. Now who said corn was boring! Corn kernels mature into a multi-coloured cob of yellow, white, blue and red. If you want to eat it off the cob, harvest it young when it is mostly yellow. Or let it dry out and either make your own flour or use it as a decoration.    

Scientific name: Zea Mays

Seeds in Pack: Choose from 35, 100, 1000 or 10,000 seeds

Growing Information: 

For the best germination rate, soak seeds overnight in water before sowing. Plant them directly into the soil where they are to grow, in a sunny position. Create a 15mm hole, sow 2-3 seeds per hole, cover with soil and keep moist until germination. When they germinate thin them out to the strongest seedling. So plants can easily pollinate one another, it is best to grow atleast 10 plants, spaced 20-30cm and in multiple rows, rather than one long row. Ensure your soil is fertile with a good moisture holding ability. Simply add some animal manure, compost or fertiliser to improve your soil.

When grown properly they will usually produce 2 cobs per plant.
