The vigorous plants grow approximately 7–7½ feet tall and produce 8-inch ears with 16 rows of golden-yellow kernels wrapped in distinctive red-striped husks. Burgundy stalks make this corn especially eye-catching in the garden, while the sugar-enhanced trait helps the ears stay sweet and tender longer after harvest.
