Japonica tri colour corn
While the deep burgundy-kernelled ears of this Corn are lovely for beading and table displays, you'll most likely grow this corn for its spectacular foliage: green brilliantly striped with pink, cream, and yellow. The dark purple tassels are a welcome bonus. Wonderful in colourful mixed borders, it also makes a dramatic thriller in large container plantings and an unusual annual hedge.
At the end of the season, allow the ears to dry completely on the stalk before harvesting, and then allow them to dry in a cool, dry spot for a little longer until a kernel heated in oil will pop. Remove the kernels from the cobs and store them in an airtight container for burgundy-accented popcorn all year long!
