Overview
Brocade is a mid-season bicolor sugar-enhanced (se) hybrid on 6 1/2-foot plants. The 8 1/2-inch ears carry 16 to 18 kernel rows inside dark green husks. It offers some tolerance to rust, Stewart's wilt, and both northern and southern corn leaf blight, useful where summer humidity brings foliar disease. Tender se kernels make it a good fresh-eating corn.
