Blue Jade Corn is a unique heirloom variety prized for its striking blue kernels and compact growth habit. This variety typically produces short, sturdy stalks with small ears filled with vibrant blue kernels. Blue Jade Corn is not only visually stunning but also boasts a deliciously sweet flavor, making it ideal for fresh eating or decorative purposes.

Plant Spacing: 8 inches, in blocks rather than rows to promote successful wind pollination
Sun Preference: Full sun.
Companion Plants: Blue Jade Corn can benefit from companion planting with nitrogen-fixing legumes such as beans and peas.
Common Pests: Common pests may include corn earworms and aphids, which can be managed through organic pest management methods such as handpicking, neem oil spray, or introducing natural predators like ladybugs.
Growing Information: Blue Jade Corn thrives in well-drained, fertile soil and requires consistent moisture throughout the growing season. Plant in blocks rather than single rows for proper pollination and full ears. Harvest when kernels are fully mature and the husks have dried down.
