Balinese is a heritage sweet corn variety growing up to 2m tall, producing two small, pale-yellow cobs per plant. Known for its rich, old-fashioned flavour, this open-pollinated, non-GMO variety far outshines supermarket hybrids in taste and texture.
This warm-season crop thrives in full sun and performs best when harvested young, while kernels are still tender and milky. Ideal for home gardeners seeking delicious, heirloom-quality corn.
