Sweetcorn Plant Northern Extra Sweet
Availability: Out of stock
The Sweetcorn 'Northern Extra Sweet' is a superb early-maturing variety, specially bred to thrive in cooler UK climates and shorter growing seasons. Perfect for gardeners in northern regions, this hybrid corn produces tall, robust plants that yield uniform, golden-yellow cobs packed with incredibly sweet, juicy kernels. Each cob is bursting with flavour and tenderness, making it a summer favourite whether grilled, steamed, or eaten straight from the garden.
Â
Plants grow best in full sun, in fertile, well-drained soil, and benefit from regular watering, especially during flowering and cob formation. 'Northern Extra Sweet' is ideal for fresh eating, freezing, or adding a sweet crunch to salads and salsas.

Supplied in approx. 9cm pots. Each pot contains 4-6 plants approx ready to be split and planted in the garden.
