Description

The listing, Ruby Queen Sweet Corn 12 seeds has ended.

Really red, really Sweet Corn, Ruby Queen Hybrid
Burpee Exclusive, Customer Favorite!
Winner will receive 12 seeds.
Ruby Queen is an amazing new sweet corn with an amazing corn color—it's really red!
You won't believe how appetizing a red corn can be until you see it on your plate, then bite into the extra-sweet, tender kernels.
You can enjoy Ruby Queen at two stages. Pick it when it's blush-red for maximum sweetness, or let it ripen to full red so it can develop its rich, old-fashioned corn flavor.
The meaty ears are 8" long with 18 rows of juicy, very tender kernels.
Plants are 7 ft. tall and often bear two ears apiece.
No need to isolate from other corns, but we suggest that you grow another variety with Ruby Queen to help with pollination.
Ready to harvest in 75 days.
Steaming or microwaving are the best cooking methods for enhancing the delectable color.
As an added bonus, the red tassels and stalks make fantastic autumn decorations.
Grow in full sun in rich, fertile, well-drained soil.

I wish the Amish farms around here would grow this. I have no place to grow it.

Grow it in a pot

Lol you can't grow corn in pots. It must be plant in rows of at least 12 x 12 plots in order for it to pollinate properly. Each silk hair on corn goes to a kernel. That top of the corn stalk is the pollen. All the silk hairs must be pollinated to get a full cob. Have you ever noticed a cob of corn with kernels missing. Those are the ones that never got pollinated and probably from the end of the rows rather then if the middle of the field. My great grandparent where corn farmers ( mostly feed corn but they grew silver queen for the whole family and we would pick it as kids. I miss those days.
