Corn- Golden Bantam Corn
Zea Mays
One of the first yellow sweet corns, this old heirloom is a non-hybrid open-pollinated variety of corn. Not only is it early, with only 80 days to maturity, it's also delicious and full of sweet flavor! It is also great for freezing, can even be frozen on the cob. Corn is a heavy feeder. Keep moist and weed-free. Compost or organic matter will improve growth as well as eliminate most weeds.
