Double Red
(Sweet) Double Red was bred over 25 years by Dr. Alan M. Kapuler Ph.D. of Peace Seeds on his nutrient focused organic farm in Corvallis, Oregon. Kapuler collaborated later, for eight years with Dylana Kapuler and Mario DiBenedetto.
Double Red is a sweet corn (normal sugary SE kernels). It has also been used as both corn meal and flour. This corn and the silk are naturally high in anthocyanin (from its deep purple/burgundy pigmentation). Leaves and stalks are a mix of green and red. 1-2 ears per plant. Has the potential as a good dye plant. Will leave fingers a purple-red.
Days to Maturity: 85 days
