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.

This open pollinated variety maturing at 120 days produces large cobs of green mealies which are perfect for cooking or braai. Has a long shelf life.

This interesting heirloom corn dates all the way back to 1890. The white cobs have irregular rows and great flavour. Country Gentleman is one of the most unusual sweet corns around because its white kernels are arranged irregularly, not in rows. The kernels are also very deep and narrow. Developed around 1890 in the Connecticut River Valley, it is a much bigger form of a very old variety. In fertile soils, it can yield three ears per stalk, sometimes more. It is a beautiful corn with wonderful texture and flavour.
