| Positive | Ozark | On Jul 24, 2009, Ozark from Ozark, MO (Zone 6a) wrote: I grew Sugar Pearl for the first time this year. I picked it at 73 days after planting, and it's just right. It's very sweet and crisp, productive with many stalks having two ears. This is a very good corn variety. |

SugarPearl is a Tablesweet ® variety that is sweeter and holds its sweetness longer than most other sweet corn. If you love white corn, nothing beats its flavor and snow white color! Bred and grown on the Western Slope of Colorado, SugarPearl is a sugary-enhanced (se) sweet corn that holds its flavor longer than other varieties and matures in just 73 days. No need to get the pot boiling before you go out and pick - SugarPearl holds its sweetness for a few days after harvesting. Make room in your garden for this one – you can’t buy it fresh in any grocery store. (This (se) variety should be separated from field corn, popcorn, and SH² (super sweet) varieties by 250 feet to prevent cross-pollination. Staggering plantings with a 10-15 plus day maturity difference will allow closer plantings where cross-pollination is a concern.)
