Beautiful foliage when used at the back of your flower border. At summer's end, harvest the kernels for popcorn. Kids will love to watch the ruby-red kernels magically turn white when popped! You may want to save a few of these charming ears, as well as the dried stalks, for fall décor. The stalks are a nice backdrop to displays of pumpkins, gourds, and dried cobs.
