The best open pollinated yellow sweet corn I have grown. Tall 7' + stalks sturdily bear one to three full-sized ears. Very sweet; almost as sweet as many of the new hybrids and with a strong corn taste and texture. I have grown Buhl in drought years and years of heavy rain and it does well every year. Germination rates higher than most of the super sweet varieties. Requires minimal care and does well with both chemical and organic fertilizers. Very few runt ears.
