Notes
'Astronomy Domine Corn' (Zea mays 'Astronomy Domine Corn') is a vegetable for borders, containers, and food gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It is not cold-hardy and will not survive freezing temperatures. This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. The stalks can reach about 122 inches tall, so give it a spot where tall plants will not shade its neighbors. Bees and butterflies visit it.
Pairs well with Sunflower, Cucumber, and Nasturtium.
