Notes
'Sugar Buns' corn (Zea mays 'Sugar Buns') is a vegetable for the food garden and for use as a tall 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 hybrid grows fast and reaches about 72 inches tall. It is ready to pick about 70 days after planting, and bees visit it.
Pairs well with Brad's Atomic Grape Tomato tomato, Radish organic, and Pesto Perpetuo basil.
