That's an interesting variation on the traditional field corn/pole beans/winter squash combination!

He was here a few years ago. But I like the 3 sisters idea.

I've never gotten it to work. The pole beans and squash grow faster than the corn plants, pulling them down. Do I have the wrong corn plants? I lover bicolor corn for eating. Maybe the ones that work are the kind you grind into cornstarch that grow tall faster. Thoughts?
