TomorrowSeeds - Strawberry Popcorn (Ornamental Corn) Seeds - 50+ Count - For 2026 Planting Red Mini

Strawberry Popcorn grows adorable small, 2-3-inch strawberry-shaped ears on compact 4-5-foot stalks and ruby red kernels with the special gene that allows it to be popped in the microwave or over flame! Strawberry Popcorn is a fun popping corn that is popular to grow for its consistent crisp corn flavor. Strawberry Popcorn pops into bright white, fluffy popcorn, despite its unusual appearance. To prepare, simply dry the ears, remove the kernels, and pop them using your preferred method. This heirloom corn is grown not only for its popping qualities but is a great addition to home gardens, farmer's markets, and craft fairs for its decorative appeal and novelty factor. 

Corn is one of the plants grown in the traditional Native American vegetable technique called the Three Sisters. The other two plants in the Three Sisters are beans and squash, and each has its role in the companion planting tradition. Corn serves as a support for the vining beans. Squash served as a ground cover, preventing weeds from growing. Beans provided natural fertilizer for all.
