Not as prolific as promised. Not really worth the effort. May produce better further south (Devon etc), and with a strict feeding regime.

Really easy, reliable, trouble-free crop. Useful to grow as a productive summer screen which requires little room! Pick the corns when the tassels are just showing. The flavour is far superior to shop bought mini-corn and they freeze well, too.
