Selected for its low-growing habit, its gorgeous blue-grey color, and its sweetness for fresh eating, Blue Jade exemplifies the diversity of open-pollinated seeds; it's also one of the best sweet corns we have tasted.
The kernels turn from white to steel blue when ripe; for peak sweetness, harvest just as they turn blue, while there is still a hint of light-yellow in the kernels. They become deeper blue when cooked.
Each dwarf plant grows to only 48" in height and yields about two ears each; the cobs are about half the size of a standard ear of sweet corn.
