This extremely rare and precious 8 row flint corn was once grown by the Micmacs and across the North Atlantic shores. Jacques Cartier observed fields of it in 1534 and it was and still is one of the earliest maturing corns, ripening in just 45-60 days. The plants are short, growing to about 2 ½ feet tall and the cobs barely reach 4" long. I was surprised how quickly it ripened for me this year and it certainly is worth growing in short season climates. The dried kernels can be soaked and then used in soups and stews. I am very happy to be able to preserve and offer this rare historic corn to my customers. Low Quantity. (45-60 days maturity)
50 seeds per packet.
