Description

Montana Morado Maize stands out with its striking deep purple kernels, a testament to its ancient Andean heritage. This heirloom corn grows vigorously, reaching heights of up to 8 feet, making it a majestic addition to any cornfield. Typically maturing in about 100 to 120 days, it thrives in a variety of climates, though it particularly favors cooler regions. The tall stalks support large ears, each bursting with tightly packed kernels that transition from a soft lavender to a rich, dark violet as they mature.

The flavor profile of Montana Morado Maize is as unique as its appearance. The kernels have a subtly sweet, earthy taste with a hint of nuttiness, making them ideal for traditional dishes like cornmeal or tortillas. This variety is also perfect for popping, providing a visually stunning and delicious snack. Its rich color is not just for show; the anthocyanins in the kernels are known for their antioxidant properties, adding a nutritional punch to its culinary appeal.

Gardeners and chefs alike will appreciate the versatility of Montana Morado Maize. In the garden, it serves as both a functional crop and a decorative plant, creating a vibrant display as it sways in the breeze. In the kitchen, its versatility shines, whether ground into flour, roasted, or popped. Montana Morado Maize is a testament to the beauty and utility of heirloom varieties, offering both aesthetic pleasure and culinary delight.
