Corn- Hopi Blue Improved Ornamental Corn
Zea Mays
This is the realIndian corn grown by Hopi Indians! It is very decorative, and the blue kernels can be ground into a blue flour, which can be used just like standard yellow cornmeal. Planting blocks of four short rows ensures good pollination. Corn is a heavy feeder. Keep moist and weed-free. Compost or organic matter will improve growth as well as eliminate most weeds.
