The 7–8 inch ears grind into authentic, slate-blue flour that produces show-stopping tortillas, blue cornbread, and pancakes with a flavor and color no yellow corn can match. Equally striking when left whole as a fall display. \u003cstrong\u003eUSDA Certified Organic.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e15 Premium Seeds per Packet\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt A Glance:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFeature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e👅 Flavor Profile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNutty \/ Earthy \/ Subtly Sweet\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e🎨 Visual Contrast\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlate Blue \/ Glossy \/ Deep Pigmentation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e⏱️ Maturity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e105 Days\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e🔢 Quantity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15 Premium Seeds per Packet\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003e✨ Flavor Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNutty Depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e A richer, more substantial flavor than standard yellow varieties — closer to whole wheat in body, with sweet undertones.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eToasted Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e When dry-milled and griddled, the blue cornmeal develops a distinctive toasted-grain aroma that sets it apart for tortillas and pancakes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🍴 Culinary Versatility\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe Authentic Blue Tortilla:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stone-ground into masa, this produces tortillas with the deep blue-violet color and earthy depth that no commercial mix can fake.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeirloom Cornbread \u0026amp; Polenta:\u003c\/strong\u003e The high-protein, anthocyanin-rich kernels mill into a flour that delivers stunning blue-grey baked goods — ideal for restaurants telling a heritage-grain story.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFall Ornamental Display:\u003c\/strong\u003e The 7–8 inch ears with deep blue kernels and excellent tip fill make a powerful counterpoint to orange and white squash in autumn arrangements.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e🌱 Growing Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenetic Stability:\u003c\/strong\u003e As a certified organic, open-pollinated variety, the blue pigmentation is consistent ear-to-ear when isolated from other corn types — save your own seed year after year.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuebec Season Performance:\u003c\/strong\u003e At 105 days, a longer-season variety — start indoors in early May or direct-sow after last frost.
