This is the best-tasting sweet corn my family has ever grown. We have grown a large garden the past several years with 4 other families, and everyone agrees that this variety tops them all! Unfortunately, the corn earworm really likes it too, but if I keep it sprayed every 4 – 5 days with a Bt insecticide, I can keep the ears nice and clean. Sad to see this variety is out of stock, but I am not surprised based on its flavor!
