Multi-colored corn bred for fresh eating and perfect for summers in the Midwest! It's a joy to peel back the husk to discover kernels ranging from deep blue to pale yellow, brick red to sunset orange, and everything in between. Bred by Alan Kapuler of Peace Seeds in Oregon, Painted Hill came from a cross between a classic heirloom white sweet corn, Luther Hill, and Painted Mountain, a diverse strain of cold-hardy, multi-colored flour corn that is the life work of Dave Christensen from Montana. This variety can germinate in cooler soils which makes it ideal for growing in the north. Ears are about 7" long and can be eaten as sweet corn or left to mature on the plant for dried corn for cornmeal. Although referred to as "sweet" corn, the flavor is milder and more complex than hybrid super-sweet varieties, and it has a satisfying starchy texture that is filled with extra nutrients and antioxidants. Color darkens over time, so expect softer colors at the fresh eating stage compared to the deeply saturated color of the mature ears. Fun for kids! Grow your own non-GMO corn with high-quality seeds.

70 days to maturity.
