Notes

'Cash Crop' corn (Zea mays 'Cash Crop') is a vegetable for the food garden, containers, and as an accent. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. This sweet corn is ready to harvest in 50 days, and bees visit it.

Pairs well with Margarita cucumber, Pink Berkeley Tie Dye tomato, and Long Island Mammoth dill.
