If it is a true cornfield the answer is no. Corn doesn't have a noticable bloom before bearing. Lots of people like to plant climbing vegetables in the corn so it will climb the stalk and they can have a double harvest from one field. We grow beans in our corn and it works well. That might be what you see is something else being grown in the corn that does bloom before the fruit grows on.

In a true corn field a flower would be considered a weed. The corn is the harvest the flower would be of no value to the farmer. Most corn fields are sprayed when the plants are small to prevent the weeds from taking nutrients from the corn. In gardens I have seen corn and greenbeans planted together. The beans will vine up the corn to get the most from the space allowed.

Yes, wildflowers such as corn poppies, corn cockle, and cornflower were once commonly seen in corn fields; but there are various types of corn; not just maize.

Yes but surprisingly enough it's not cornflowers. Cornflower is something completely different and has no relation to the corn plant
