CORN Tennessee Red Cob
DENT 2oz
approx 186-200 seeds
120 days. [Pre-1900. The date is uncertain since Tennessee farmers referred to several red cob, white dent corns as 'Tennessee Red Cob'; however this seed came from the University of Tennessee. Seed generously supplied by VA extension agent Harold Jerrell.] Tall, sturdy stalks often used to support pole beans. Medium-large ears are borne one per stalk. Mr. Jerrell reported that in 1995 this variety produced a good crop on only 2" of rain from mid-June until the first of September. It was one of the driest years on record in his growing area in Virginia, and was the only variety that produced. Makes great corn bread as well as attractive corn cob pipes. Pkt.
