You simply cannot resist such beautiful silver-purple corn! For ornamental purposes, but originally as baking corn to grind into flour, for making delicious cake or cornbread. Roasting them until they softly "pop" is also a popular option! The 120 cm compact plants yield their harvest very early and sometimes branch out for even more cobs, making this corn suitable for our climate.
