Cherokee Gourdseed field

Deep kernels look like large melon seeds - very unusual. This type of corn originated with the Native People of the Eastern woodlands and became widely grown and known for spectacular harvests. It was pushed aside by hybrid varieties after WWII, which is unfortunate. Each sturdy, 8 foot stalk sets two tightly husked, chunky ears. I have multicolpors red, white, porange and black and will send a mixture. (200 seeds per packet)
120 days to dry down, though, so start this one early.
