Zea mays

This open pollinated yellow maize variety has large cobs with dents at the crown of each kernel. Each cob consists of 12-16 rows of kernels.

Dent corn is mostly used for corn meal and animal feed because unlike sweet corn its skin is very tough and does not soften with cooking. It needs to be soaked or ground for use.

The plants grow to around 2.6m tall and have hanging leaves. The silks are white/red in colour and are usually seen around day 70.

Ready to harvest around 135 days.

Standard packet contains approx 120 seeds
