Red Corn (Zea mays)

Red Corn is a stunning heirloom variety that brings bold color and rich flavor to the garden and kitchen. With deep burgundy to ruby-red kernels, each ear is a visual masterpiece—perfect for roasting, grinding into cornmeal, or adding a splash of color to salads and salsas.

Unlike sweet yellow corn, red corn varieties often have a slightly nutty, earthy flavor and are packed with antioxidants like anthocyanins, giving them both beauty and nutritional punch. Some types are sweet enough to eat fresh, while others are best suited for flour or hominy.

The tall, statuesque plants are not only productive but also incredibly ornamental, making them a showstopper in any garden. Whether you're growing for flavor, color, or tradition, Red Corn is a heritage crop that celebrates the diversity and beauty of ancient maize.
