The ear of the maize is a modified spike and there may be 1–3 per plant. The maize grains, or 'kernels', are encased in husks and total 30–1000 per ear. The kernels can be white, yellow, red, purple or black. Maize is an annual plant, surviving for only one growing season and can reach 2–3 m (7–10 ft) in height.
