CORN (Zea mays)
125 seeds per packet. The ultimate Native American crop. All types are grown the same way. At about the time of last frost in spring, direct-seed into the richest soil available, 1-2 inches deep. Whether planted in rows or beds, allow the corn plants up to about one square foot per plant, on average. Ears fill best when dry conditions are not allowed to prevail at tasseling time. Sweet corn is picked when milky juice is contained within the kernels; clear juice is immature, and chewiness means the ear is over-mature. Flour corn is left on the plant until thoroughly dry in the fall.

85 days to dry! A real treasure from Montana, this exciting corn has been selected for 30 years by Dave Christensen. He used about 50 of the most hardy and early strains of native corns to make this one of the earliest and most productive varieties for the North. It is also very nutritious with 13% protein! It makes a fine-flavored flour. The 7" ears come in the most amazing vivid fall colors, with many shades not available in other corns. The plants are short, 5', and don't shade other crops like tall corn.
