FREE: Painted Hill Heirloom Sweet Corn: Organically Grown & Open Pollinated~25 Seeds Non-GMO

The listing, Painted Hill Heirloom Sweet Corn: Organically Grown & Open Pollinated~25 Seeds Non-GMO has ended.

This colorful, open-pollinated sweet corn was developed from a cross of Painted mountain flour (Indian) corn with the heirloom sweet corn, Luther Hill. The 7" multi-colored ears make a beautiful display, and every kernel is filled with robust, old-time corn flavor. A unique variety that can be grown anywhere, Painted Hill is well adapted to short-season and northern gardens. Seed germinates even in cold soils, and plants will tolerate light frost so it can be sown several weeks earlier than other corn varieties.

When to sow outside: RECOMMENDED. 1 to 2 weeks after average last frost and when soil temperatures are warm (60 - 65º F).

When to start inside: Not recommended; corn seed does not transplant well.

Special sowing instructions: easy to grow from seed. Since pollination occurs from wind, corn seed should be sown in short, parallel rows or blocks.
