Description

“A selection from Anasazi crossed with Tuxedo (se) – Following on the heals of the white Tuxana, Zanadoo has a mixture of white and yellow kernels and we are finding this bi-color is promising to be a little sweeter than the single color white or yellow Anasazi cross corn lines. About 82 days to maturity with mostly 14 rows of big deep kernels on 7 1/2″” long, wide diameter cobs. Robust flavor, long husks give good ear protection. 2 ears per 6 1/2′ tall plant. Selected to produce without high fertility levels and without coddling.”
