If you are looking for an heirloom sweet corn with modern sweet corn quality, look no further. Hayes White is an open-pollinated sweet corn developed by Dr. H.K. Hayes of Minnesota State University in the 1930's. According to Dr. Hayes, seed from a "very tender, white endosperm, open-pollinated variety of unknown origin" was obtained from his brother H.M.

The resulting line required 40% less pressure to puncture the kernels, when compared to Golden Bantam, and was the basis for the breeding of many subsequent sweet corn varieties, including the famous "Silver Queen" hybrid. Early-maturing plants grow just 3-4' tall, making them an excellent choice for small gardens. Plants produce two harvestable ears per plant. 60-75 days to harvest. 50 seeds per packet.
