Brotherdave got me turned on to the Mirai series of sweet corn. They are all fantastic.

I agree with the Mirai. Been growing it for a couple years. Comes in yellow, bicolor, or white.

I start my season with 'Sweet Chorus' and 'Ambrosia'. They will germinate well in cold soil. I can plant them as early as Mid April. Once the soil is warm by mid May I switch to the 'Mirai cultivars and I finish the season with them.
