(a.k.a. Shoepeg Corn) (Zea mays) 83-100 days.       Introduced in 1890 by Frank C. Woodruff of S. D. Woodruff & Sons, from Orange, Connecticut and the following year by Peter Henderson & Co. of New York. Country Gentleman Non GMO Sweet Corn is an old-fashioned “shoe peg” type corn, meaning the creamy white kernels are in an irregular pattern as opposed to rows. Stalks grow to 7-8′ tall, producing up to 3 ears each. Ears grow to 8″, with tender, sweet, and creamy kernels. Makes some of the best cream corn you’ll ever taste, which freezes well, giving you a taste of delicious sweet corn from your garden even on the most bitter winter days! Good for canning and freezing whole as well. Master fishermen find it makes a superior corn bait. Country Gentleman Non GMO has better resistance to corn smut than earlier, smaller varieties of sweet corn.
