Corn, the real, non-hybridized sort, is anything but boring monochrome. Watch your ears of corn mature into a multi-coloured rainbow with this heirloom variety. Apart from being more colourful, Anasazi Rainbow is also more drought tolerant than regular corn, but do pick it young if you want to eat it off the cob. Alternatively, make your own organic cornflour or use the dried corn cobs as attractive ornaments.

  • Growing Information

    How to Sow

    Although you can skip this step, your seeds will come up much faster if you soak them overnight before sowing. Plant them directly in the place they’re to grow, spacing them 20 cm apart.

    How to Harvest

    Harvest immature cobs when the kernals are yellow and white if you want to eat as a sweet corn. The rainbow cobs will develop if the cobs are left on the plant to dry.

    Germination rate

    Only a beginner but had rather poor germination rate around 30%. The cold snap probably didn’t help too much.

    Good strong plants, good yield, relatively unappealing to the worms (compared to other sweetcorn varieties I've planted)
