Golden Bantam 
80 days. Though many new Sweet 
Corns have been introduced since 
Golden Bantam made its appearance 
none so far has surpassed it in sweet- 
ness and distinct buttery flavor. Its 
great popularity is due not only to 
its luscious sweet flavor but also to 
the fact that it is easily eaten from 
the cob because the ears are handy, 
measuring six inches in length.
