(Zea mays)
This is a amazingly rare Native American Corn. The name comes from the kernels because they so resemble teeth. This is a great flour corn with huge 12Ã?â?? + ears that grow on monster stalks that can top 13Ã?â??. Very drought tolerant like many native corns. The provenance of my seed stock was giving to me by William Woys Weaver, when I worked for him. 100 days.

We grow and sell our own seeds and then turn them into nursery products, which we sell and then all that becomes produce.
