Corn plant part (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tassel

(Other definitions for tassel that I've seen before include "Bunch of cords fastened at one end" , "Ornamental tuft of threads" , "Bunch of cords as adornment" , "Decoration made from a tuft of threads" , "Mortar board attachment" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
