This old Mexican heirloom variety produces 18cm ears on approximately 180cm plants. When the kernels are still light coloured, the ears can be picked and used as sweet corn. Allowing the ears to mature, the kernels turn black, grey-black, or bluish-black in colour. Harvested at that mature stage, it can be dried and ground for corn meal.

Sweet Corn Bloody Butcher is truly a fabulous heirloom corn with blood-red kernels in gorgeous wine-red husks. This is a long season corn, and bears 20-30cm ears on tall over 2m stalks. The immature ears can be eaten like sweet corn, but the mature corn can be ground for an exquisite red corn flour or used for decoration. Drought resistant.

Stunning glossy colours! Translucent kernels shine like glass and resemble glass beads on the cob. The 8-16cm ears are not only decorative, but edible and delicious as well. Can be used as popping corn and for grinding into flour or when young the cobs can be cooked. Sturdy plants reach up to 2.5m tall.

 Variety - Stowells Evergreen Sweetcorn

Scientific name - Zea mays

Approximate seeds per gram - 2

Pack Size - Available in 200gram and 1kg packs

Description - Stowell's Evergreen' sweet corn is one of, if not, the oldest named sweet corn varieties in existence. It is a late season variety, that yields 20cm long ears that each produce anywhere from ten to fourteen rows of sweet, white, tender kernels. It keeps longer than most, which makes it one of the best heirloom varieties for the table, canning, and freezing. Because these excellent traits, it has been a home garden and market grower favourite sweet corn variety since Nathan Stowell of Burlington, New Jersey first began sharing his creation in 1848. Mr. Stowell developed 'Stowell's Evergreen' from a stabilized cross between a now presumed extinct "soft corn" called 'Menomony' and another extinct variety simply called, 'Northern Sugar'. A great sweetcorn for the home garden and market scale growing.
