Here's a rare chance to try out a wonderful new/old variety of corn!

Double Red Sweet Corn is a recently-developed blend of heirlooms, bred for nutrition and multiple uses by Alan Kapular of Peace Seeds, who has dedicated his life to the protection of plant biodiversity.

100 days. This intensely red sweet corn is great for corn-on-the-cob or can be dried and ground to make traditional corn bread. High-yielding, open-pollinated variety adapted to organic culture, producing full ears on stocky, red-streaked stalks. The red comes from antioxidant anthocyanins - so it's super-healthy eating!

Note that in the sweet "milk" stage the corn is still white, just beginning to develop red tips on the kernels. When fully mature (ready to dry and grind) it is a deep purple-red.

The seed was organically grown and is, of course, non-GMO.

This auction is for 20 seeds - happy bidding!
