Listing is for 10 Seeds Floriani Red Corn (Zea mays) is a stunning heirloom flint corn variety originating from Northern Italy, where it has been traditionally grown for generations. The ears are medium to large, packed with deep red kernels that develop a rich, warm hue as they mature. When ground, these kernels produce a strikingly golden cornmeal with a slightly reddish tint, making it an excellent choice for polenta, cornbread, and other stone-ground applications. Unlike sweet corn, Floriani Red Corn is harvested once fully dry, ensuring its firm texture and high-quality milling properties. Its dense, glassy kernels give it superior storage potential, making it a favorite among home millers and heritage grain enthusiasts. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, Floriani Red Corn grows on sturdy, tall stalks that provide excellent resistance to lodging. It matures over a full season, producing consistent, well-filled ears that dry naturally on the plant. Highly adaptable to various climates, this variety has gained popularity for its resilience, rich history, and superior flavor when milled. Whether grown for traditional culinary use, decorative fall arrangements, or heirloom preservation, Floriani Red Corn is a rewarding and visually striking addition to any cornfield or garden.
