Orchard Baby yielded sweet, tender, and full 3 inch ears in a remarkably short time. They also yielded well in this summer's drought and additionally it produced more than one delicious ear per plant. I would recommend this variety to anyone looking for an early sweet corn, wanting to grow sweet corn in a container, or anyone who has children so that their children can have their own child sized corn. |
