Notes

'Flagship' corn (Zea mays 'Flagship') is a vegetable for the food garden and 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 erect, and it blooms from early to late summer.

Pairs well with Dragon Tongue bush bean, German Pink Tomato tomato, and Pesto Perpetuo basil.
