Melissa’s Ornamental Corn is available in three varieties, the large, the mini and strawberry ornamental corn. The large ornamental corn is also known as Indian ornamental corn. The kernels of the Indian variety can be a wide array of colors from red to white, with inconsistent color patterns. The husks are large as well and are either purple or cream. The mini or small variety looks the same as the Indian corn, but much smaller.
The Strawberry ornamental corn is shaped similar, but much larger than an actual strawberry, hence the name. Strawberry Ornamental Corn displays very deep purple/burgundy kernels with attached cream husks. All three of these ornamental corns make beautiful fall decorations all season long. Mix all three varieties of Melissa’s Ornamental Corn for maximum color and style.
Melissa’s Ornamental Corn is for decoration purposes only and is not edible.
Store Melissa’s Ornamental Corn in a cool dry place.
