Early Pink Popcorn Ornamental Corn Seeds
About- Colors of this miniature popcorn vary from pink to mauve to light purple. Stalks produce 2-3 ears that are 3 to 5 inches long and vary slightly in size and color. Can be used in dried arrangements, crafts, wreaths or popped for eating.
When and Where to Plant- Select a sunny location and plant when all danger of frost is past and the soil has warmed. For best results, cultivate soil and fertilize with vegetable food. To ensure good pollination, sow seed in blocks of at least 4 rows side by side, rather than a long single row. For an extended harvest, plant every 3 weeks until early summer.
Care and Harvest- Grows best in soil with a pH between 6 and 7. Cultivate weekly or mulch between plants and rows to control weeds. When ears are fully mature in late summer, cut and store in a dry place.
