Notes
'Maiz Morado or Kulli Corn' (Zea mays 'Maiz Morado or Kulli Corn') is a vegetable for the food garden, borders, and containers. 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. It grows 84 to 96 inches tall, so it makes a tall screen at the back of a bed. Bees and butterflies visit it.
Pairs well with Sunflower, Cucumber, and Nasturtium.
