Mirai bicolour


I sow its seeds a month ago.  It germinates after 3 days. 
a week old corn seedling


 Surprisingly it starts to produce male flower (tassel) after a month.


this photo is taken today



 Interesting fact about corn is that  a tassel will appear first followed by a female flower. The height this corn is supposed to be 5 to 6 feet. But this one is only 2.5 feet and still growing.

  1. Hopefully the female will make an appearance soon too.
