The Corn Kit

Grow your own corn and get a luxurious delicacy for the grill or as easy-to-cook cobs with butter. This magnificent plant also thrives on your balcony if you take care of it properly.

Drop 2-3 seeds per pot, and thin until you have one strong plant left. Keep the soil moist, give them plenty of sun, and boost with fertilizer every other week.

Shake the plants lightly to help pollinate the stalk. Harvest when the silk is brown and the kernels feel plump. Combine with beans and squash for a cool balcony ecosystem, and give them support so they stand steady in the wind. With a little love and care, you can enjoy fresh, homegrown corn right from your balcony.

All our seeds are produced in Sweden by dedicated growers who grow small-scale and sustainably. Simply a careful craftsmanship from start to finish. In collaboration with Nordfrö.

Cascade Ruby Gold

This flour corn is considered almost legendary for its fantastic taste that varies with the colors, which go from light yellow, gold and to deep dark red, with more intense aroma the darker the cob. The flour from the corn makes fantastic polenta, tortilla or sweet pastries. Selection of Oregon-based grower oracle Carol Deppe. Height: approx. 180 cm.
Grown by : Jorge at Nybrukarna (Vetlanda)
Germination : min. 95%.

Painted Mountain

Fabulously beautiful and versatile flour corn that is excellent for porridge and bread, but can also be grilled and boiled. Painted Mountain is said to be able to exhibit all the color variations that corn can have and is also said to have the greatest genetic variation. Is very resistant to cold and wind and is one of the earliest varieties. Selection by Dave Christensen in Montana. Height: approx. 150 cm.
Grown by : Lisa in Rö (Norrtälje)
Germination : min. 95%.

Ashworth

With its deep, buttery flavor, this bright yellow corn is a sure winner, even though it is not as sweet as some modern hybrids. It is excellent for our latitudes as it germinates well in slightly cooler soil and matures slightly earlier than other varieties. Grows to about 150 cm tall.
Grown by : Britt-Marie in Linnemölla (Kristianstad)

Damaun

The sweetest open-pollinated corn you can find. What does that mean for you? Well, you get a richly sweet corn with excellent quality on the cobs and you can save your own seed. Despite its sweetness, it still has a round and rich corn flavor. Produces about 20 cm large cobs on hardy, strong-growing plants.
