Zea mays var. japonica

4 1/2" pot, 15/tray

This is a wonderful plant to mass for instant backdrop. The leaves are variegated with white, cream, pink and green and often red stems. Plant in very rich soil with tight spacing to get a solid mass of texture. Best when other bushier mid size plants can mask the lower stems. Makes a nice support for morning glories. Size: 4-6' Spacing: 12-14" Full sun.
