'American Farmer Grows Amazing Multi-Coloured Corn'

By Sarah Williams / INN Live

These extraordinary images may appear to show colourful boiled sweets or even glass beads - but in fact, they show specially bred ears of corn.

Now the unique strain is available for purchase online, and is in hot demand from gardeners keen to add a touch of colour to their vegetable patch.
