Notes

'Classic Romantic' corn (Zea mays 'Classic Romantic') is a vegetable for the food garden and as an accent. It is typically grown as an annual. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. It grows fast and stands erect, and bees visit it.

Pairs well with Cherry Bomb tomato, Sashimi cucumber, Pesto Perpetuo basil, and Fern Leaf dill.
