Bodacious ears are large at 20cm (8") and very sweet and tender. The husk is an attractive dark-green colour and kernels are bright yellow and tender. Bodacious corn seeds are highly recommended for home grown corn on the cob or freezing, and it keeps its fine flavour and sweetness for several days after harvesting. This is a late maturing variety that can grow to 2.1m (7') tall. This variety features high resistance to Northern Corn Leaf Blight and Maize Dwarf Mosaic Virus, with intermediate resistance to Stewart's Wilt. Be sure to wait until the soil is 17°C (64°F) before planting our untreated corn seeds.
Matures in 80 to 90 days. (SE Sugar Enhanced hybrid seeds)
