It's a deep purple, anthocyanin-rich flour corn selected by Ed Shultz, who spent 30 years developing it. Ideal for northern gardeners wanting to grow dark purple corn for the healthful drink chicha morada. This variety adjusts well to long days and cool nights, maturing early in areas with shorter days. The short, stocky plants yield two ears each, featuring 8-row, long slender cobs, suitable for milling into fine flour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Tips:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mountain Morado corn grows best in well-drained soil enriched with organic matter such as compost or well-rotted manure.
