They have a broad shoulder and gradually taper to- ward a fine thin tap root. Due to their form they are easy to harvest. The flesh also is most attractive —a rich deep orange.

The plants make a vigorous growth and produce a splendid crop of large, well shaped ears measuring 6 to 7 inches in length. There are 10 or 12 rows of grains neatly arranged in straight rows around a small cob. The thin-skinned grains are milky white and have a lusciously sweet and toothsome flavor.
