(a.k.a. Golden Bantam 8 Row or Yellow Bantam) (Zea mays) 70-85 days.       Introduced to the corn market by W. Atlee Burpee in 1902. Prior to 1900 most people thought that yellow corn was fit only for animal feed. But shortly after the introduction of Golden Bantam Non GMO Sweet Corn, people in the U.S. began to actually favor yellow corn. Golden Bantam Non GMO corn has been the family standard for sweet corn for generations now, and with good reason, with its fantastic sweet flavor that is great for fresh eating or freezing. Grows 5-6′ tall and produces 5-7″ ears, each filled with golden yellow kernels. Reliable, adaptable and very sweet for an open-pollinated heirloom corn.
