Zea mays 'Natural Bright XR' fruit

It has been our experience that Zea mays 'Natural Bright XR' performs well in our area in a warm season planting. It is about five feet tall and about one and a half to two feet wide.

The husk is very tight towards the top of the corn cob, which helps prevent from infestations of insects. The corn has a sweet flavor.
