Description
Each plant will produce four to five pale yellow babycorns that are best harvested when around 4" - 6" (10 - 15 cm) long (they get a little woody at the base if you let them get too big).
Unlike the dried up 'apologies for babycorn' you regularly find in the supermarkets you'll find your home grown to be crunchy and sweet, full of flavour - perfect for salads, stir fry's or steaming.
Vigorous in habit, these are reliable and easy to grow. And as you eat the cobs when they are juvenile there is no need to worry about growing in blocks to aid pollination.
