Pergola Design Ideas Offers New Information On The Evolution Of Corn

March 10, 2016 – – Pergola Design Ideas would like to draw attention to a new piece of information that has surfaced the online environment, which explains the history and origin of corn. The information specifically looks at extensive studies that have been completed by various universities, all of which seem to be looking at the truth behind the humble corn. Essentially, it explains the immense evolution of this plant and how corn is a vegetable sometimes.

John Wick from Pergola Design Ideas says: “An interesting thing about corn is the fact that a botanical classification puts corn in the category of fruit (like tomatoes, cucumbers, etc.) but the way it is harvested or consumed puts it either in a vegetable or a grain category. So, it means corn can be anything you want it to be. However, corn is about so much more than whether it is a fruit or a vegetable. It has truly shaped the history of this country.”

Pergola Designs is a business that focuses on creating beautiful garden designs, while at the same time enhancing natural beauty. This country was built on cotton and corn, some would say, and corn fields are a thing of beauty as well as functionality. While not often used as a decoration plant in most gardens, it does actually look very beautiful, and many people who have corn fields try to design their garden to match with their fields.

That being said, the company became interested in corn not so much as a design element, but due to the fact that new research surfaced about this vegetable/fruit. They decided to delve a little bit deeper into the role corn has played in the development of this country and the Americas as a whole. “The evolution of corn as it was first cultivated around 8,700 B.C in Mesoamerica to present day usage in Europe, Latin America, and India, both as vegetable and grain has been fascinating,” adds John Wick. “The journey has been remarkable. We believe you can say with a lot of certainty now that corn indeed is a vegetable, though it is grain too.”
