Days to maturity: 112 days'Rainbow' Corn is a stunning ornamental and functional heirloom variety celebrated for its dazzling, multi-colored kernels in shades of red, blue, purple, gold, orange, and white. Each ear is a one-of-a-kind display of color, making Rainbow corn a favorite for fall décor, crafts, and heirloom preservation. But its beauty isn't just skin deep—these vibrant ears can also be ground into richly flavored cornmeal or popped for a unique, rustic snack. Plants grow 6 to 8 feet tall and produce 8 to10 inch ears packed with jewel-toned kernels. Known for its excellent drought tolerance and strong genetic diversity, Rainbow corn is ideal for gardeners who value visual appeal, productivity, and versatility in a single crop. Widely used for seasonal decoration, the dried ears are perfect for autumn wreaths, centerpieces, and harvest displays. Beyond ornamental use, the kernels can be dried and ground into cornmeal for cornbread, tortillas, or grits. Some ears may also be suitable for popping, offering a slightly nutty flavor and old-fashioned texture. Direct sow seeds outdoors in spring once soil temperatures reach at least 60°F. Corn prefers full sun and fertile, well-drained soil. Ears mature in approximately 100 to 112 days and should be left on the stalk to dry before harvest. With good resistance to common corn diseases and adaptability to a range of climates, Rainbow Corn is as practical as it is beautiful—an heirloom variety that brings both color and utility to the home garden. Pack Size: 2 oz (approx. 180 seeds)
