Notes
'Big Mo' corn (Zea mays 'Big Mo') is a vegetable for the food garden and for use as an accent. It is typically grown as an annual. It is not cold-hardy and will not survive freezing temperatures. This plant likes full sun, average moisture, and loamy or clay soil. It grows fast and stands upright, so it makes a tall backdrop in the bed. It blooms from early to late summer.
Pairs well with Dragon Tongue bush bean, German Johnson tomato, and Nigra hollyhock.
