Best time to plant Heritage Corn in South Africa:

Corn is a warm-season crop that needs warm soil and frost-free conditions. The best planting times are:

• Spring to early summer (September – November) after the last frost
• In warmer regions (KwaZulu-Natal, Lowveld and coastal areas) you can plant from August/September
• In colder inland areas wait until soil temperatures are consistently warm (usually October – November).

Plant in full sun in well-drained, fertile soil. Corn is wind-pollinated, so grow it in blocks rather than single rows for better pollination and fuller ears. Keep the soil evenly moist, especially during flowering and cob development.

Whether you want to reconnect with traditional farming or simply enjoy delicious homegrown corn, Linda’s Original 1000 Hills Heritage Corn delivers strong plants, good yields and genuine old-fashioned flavour.
