100 to 110 days — Miniature Blue' popcorn ears have thin cobs, are small, averaging two to four inches in length with shiny kernels that are a beautiful, deep- to medium-blue color. They are not as purple as other blue type corn varieties. The stalks average six to seven feet in height and produce from two to four ears each.

The small dry ears, with their "colonial blue" color, are attractive and popular for using in "country decorating," in dried arrangements, fall decorations, bird feeders, wreaths, and crafts. Although it is quite ornamental, it is popcorn and can be popped for eating! Each packet contains 0.5 ounces, which is approximately 160 to 170 seeds.
