(85 days) Open-pollinated. Breeder Carol Deppe brings us this very early and productive true flint corn with big seeds on medium-narrow cobs that dry down quickly. Superb for cornbread, johnny cakes and polenta. Ears, 8–12" long with 8–12 rows, are solid-colored but husking each one reveals a surprise: red, red-brown, dark red, orange-gold, maple-gold, gold or yellow! Interior kernel color is gold. Each color produces a different flavor of cornbread; red shades have a richer flavor, while yellows are milder. All colors are great! Carol’s recipes can be found in her book The Resilient Gardener. She bred this corn by crossing Abenaki Calais with Byron Flint, selecting for a variety that could get growers through the good times and the bad. Does well even in downright cold summers. Good husk coverage provides protection against birds and corn earworms. Also beautifully ornamental. OSSI. Breeder Royalties. Independent Breeder. ①
