Raymondo, I just took some corn this past weekend that was incredibly sweet, King Kool from Burpee, but it is bicolor. I put pics up here of the corn if you want to see what they look like.

Thanks for the suggestion, Jim. Nice photos too! Looks like you had a good summer.

While I'm asking for variety recommendations, I might add that a heat-tolerant variety would get extra brownie points. :)

Hmmm, I'm not sure I am aware of that particular caveat. There are far more knowledgeable people here that might be able to help with that.

Silver Series (Silver Princess, Silver King, Silver Queen)

This site has a guide to the types of sweet corn:

As I had mentioned, there are some people here with tremendous amounts of knowledge and experience. Farmerdill is one of them. I too appreciate the input on the difference in varieties.

Indeed, Farmerdill is a corn guru! Great list! I appreciate listing of days until harvest, as the season is growing short. If I can track down some Silver Duchess or Silver Princess, that sounds like the way to go.

Thanks to everyone for their input. On to my next corn growing question.
