What customers say
Customers highly value the Ornamental Corn Early Pink Seed for its unique aesthetic and reliable quality. The distinctive kernels display beautiful transitions of pink, burgundy, and deep red, making them excellent for seasonal decor. Growers appreciate the quicker maturity time aligning with the 'Early Pink' designation. Germination rates are consistently praised, confirming strong seed vigor. A key point is the natural color variation; while beautiful, the final cobs often show a wider spectrum than expected, sometimes leaning heavily toward burgundy rather than pure soft pink. This variability is inherent to the variety. Overall, this corn is strongly recommended for those seeking a visually striking, dependable ornamental variety who embrace natural color shifts.
