Hasting's Prolific Corn

[HomesteaderWife]

Has anyone here ever heard of a variety of corn known as Hasting's Prolific? I have had a hard time finding any information on it, so I just wanted to see if anyone here has any knowledge on it. About all I know is it puts out a ton of ears per stalk, and that I have the opportunity to get some seed for it. I also know that it was created by a company that no longer exists called Hastings that once sold seeds. Thank you for any information!

Thanks for posting that resource- I did not originally see that when looking up information about the seeds, so it is appreciated. They also mention Bloody Butcher another variety I am looking into. Again, thank you for your help!

Sand Hill is a great resource, they work hard to preserve rare seeds and bird breeds.

I am very glad that you shared that with me, because I am very interested in helping to preserve rare seeds after talking to our preacher, who invests in growing rare varieties of vegetables.

Their tomato section is beyond amazing.
