Uses

<p>Dried multicoloured cobs are used for festive and rustic <strong>home decoration</strong>, wreaths and centrepieces. Stalks make good green fodder or compost material, and some strains double as popcorn.</p>

Growing tips

<p>Sow seeds <strong>2-3 cm deep</strong>, spacing plants 25-30 cm apart in <strong>blocks of several short rows</strong> rather than a single line to ensure good wind pollination. Germination takes <strong>7-14 days</strong> in warm soil. Hill up soil around the base as plants grow for support. Cobs are ready in about <strong>90-110 days</strong>; leave them on the plant until husks dry, then harvest and air-dry indoors for decor.</p>

Frequently asked questions

When should I sow ornamental corn in India?
Sow after the cold passes, from February-March in the plains and again with the monsoon (June-July). Warm soil above 18°C gives the best germination.
Can I grow ornamental corn in pots on a terrace?
Yes, use large 15-20 litre grow-bags with rich soil and group several together for pollination, though open ground or raised beds give taller, better-filled cobs.
