Variety File: Sweet Offerings

Crookham Co.'s sweet corn varieties not only offer flavor, they also provide disease resistance. The company has taken one if its most popular varieties, Bodacious R/M, and now offers it with a stronger disease package.

Holiday also boasts an impressive disease package, with intermediate/moderate resistance to common rust and high/standard resistance to Stewart's Wilt and northern corn leaf blight. Said to be very adaptable with a unique taste, Symmetry (CSAWF5-203), a homozygous white augmented, also has an impressive disease package.

Another sweet corn variety from Crookham is Kristine, a bicolor synergistic version of Cinderella. Kristine has intermediate/moderate resistance to common rust, Stewart's wilt, and northern corn leaf blight.
