INCI: Zea Mays Seed
Umuthi Sweetcorn (Overland) Seeds produce tall, robust plants with plump, golden cobs and a sweet, creamy flavour. Suited to full sun and rich, well-drained soil, Overland matures early and yields reliably, making it a classic for boiling, grilling or eating fresh off the cob. Plant in blocks for good pollination and full, even kernels.
♡ Why we love it: Early, generous harvests with that unmistakable summer sweetness. Cobs cook up tender on the braai or in the pot, and the plants stand strong in well-prepared beds.
Size: 25 Seeds.
