It's an easy keeper (grower Shelby Mandonado hasn't noticed any exceptional nutrient needs), has been fairly productive, and has the best taste! It's sweet and buttery - by far the best sweet corn Shelby has ever grown. From a grower perspective, it has had minimal damage from corn earworms....basically, no notes. Pretty small ears.
