Don’t have a garden? Don’t let that stop you!
You can still watch your corn seeds grow at home by planting them in pots.
If you didn’t join us at the Royal Adelaide Show you can buy True Gold corn (the variety we’re planting in the City Crop), and all the gardening supplies you need, from The Diggers Shop in Adelaide Botanic Garden.
In approximately 14 weeks your corn plants should be mature, reaching between 1.5 and 2 metres tall and with corn cobs ready to be eaten.
Happy gardening!

The Titan Arum, or Corpse Flower, is known for its notorious smell - but did you know these plants have a fascinating life up to 10 years prior to the stinky inflorescent bloom?
