Jimmy Red Corn Famous Bootlegger Moonshine Grits Hominy Masa Heirloom Seeds for Planting Packet

I don't have a green thumb so it means a lot when saying that this was the only plant that produced in my garden this summer. Also to note is that the squirrels really loved this stuff! Low maintenance required.

Grew extraordinary tall, like 11ft.

It came in a paper bag and most of the seeds were just demolished. Planted 42 seeds and only 19 came up. Very disappointing.

I started these seeds early. They sprouted in about a weeks time and are starting to grow. (I have them protected since and our average last frost date is still two weeks away) Jimmy Red corn makes the best grits! The flavor is just amazing, a bit sweeter than most corn varieties. The corn can be used for decoration if you let them dry on the stalk. I like the fact that they are an heirloom variety and not genetically modified. They usually have two ears per stalk usually, so there will be a good yield. I'm looking forward to my first harvest. ***if you want to plant early, google "average last frost date in _______(your area)" to make sure its safe to plant, or if you will need to cover them during the night as I did until that date has passed. I am at a higher elevation, so that is why I start my seeds early.

Some seeds didn't sprout, I would say maybe 40% ,
