The best second early white corn that I have tried. I plant Silver Princess, Silver King, and Silver Queen at the same time for extended harvest. Silver Princess has slightly smaller ears and is a smaller plant than Silver King and Silver Queen, but has almost the same flavor and is much earlier maturing. Very vigorous plant that yields well.
