A garden question, but not for garden section

I don't think he wants to make any corn he just wants to grow corn stalks. I guess they will grow in a flower pot but I doubt that the silks would ever get enough pollen on them from the tassels to put any kernels of corn the cobs.

If you are trying to confuse your neighbors, try this ornamental corn.

Strawberry corn did well in a pot. That japanese corn is pretty. I like corns that can grow up to 15 feet tall.Sandhill preservation had a lot of variety.

For a bit of talking some kenaf hibiscus would get people wondering.....until it flowered. I live by a police station,and have patrol cars passing often so forget this one for me.I hate unexpected visits.

(Hibiscus cannabinus) This amazing plant can grow up to 18' in 150 days. I like to grow it for its cream-colored blooms that have a red center, but this crop is grown commercially for fiber used in making rope, paper, fabric, particle board and more. In Africa it is believed to have been grown 4000 years. The edible leaves are cooked and eaten. Beautiful palmate cut leaves that often look somewhat similar to marijuana, though not related. There have been cases of inept deputies raiding this crop and testing it as an illegal crop, under our multi-billion (taxpayers) dollar war on drugs.>>>>

A few years ago, there was an incident in a small community where a "raid" removed a large number of okra plants.

At one time, I had a couple hundred Japanese Maples in pots in my back yard, many with highly divided leaves. One of my neighbors found them highly suspicious.
