🌽 Bloody Butcher Sweetcorn Seeds – Heirloom 💰 Pack of 10, 50, or 100 seeds. Old U.S. heirloom with tall plants, sweet young corn, and ornamental value 🌿.
Bloody Butcher is a classic heirloom sweetcorn variety cultivated in the United States since at least 1845. Valued for its vivid red kernels and historic heritage, this corn is a favorite among gardeners, farmers, and ornamental plant enthusiasts alike. Its striking deep red cobs make it a decorative choice while still producing sweet, tender corn when harvested young 🌽.
Originally grown as sweet corn for roasting, frying, or grinding into corn flour, Bloody Butcher delivers both aesthetic appeal and culinary versatility. While the young cobs are soft and sweet, older kernels become more robust, suitable for grinding or decorative uses.
