Notes
'Art Verrell's Sweet Corn' (Zea mays 'Art Verrell's Sweet Corn') is a vegetable for food gardens and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. It grows tall, from 47 to 122 inches, so give it a spot where it will not shade smaller plants. Bees and butterflies visit it.
Pairs well with Sunflower, Cucumber, and Nasturtium.
