I am writing this review about Jubilee Sweet Corn that was produced and marketed by Livingston Seed Co. I have tried for two successive years to grow this variety, but as yet I have not been able to get the germination rate to be more than about 30% at best. This germ rate will not allow enough mature plants to correctly pollinate each other or grow to maturity successfully. The first year I thought it might have been the timing, but both years another variety from another source planted in the same plot at the same time germinated at close to 98%. I would not suggest anyone trying this seed after my experience. I can\'t rate the yield or taste because there isn\'t enough to harvest.
