Vegetable seed breeders are constantly working to enhance varieties with not only better aesthetics and flavor profiles, but also with improved disease resistance. All of those qualities are of interest and importance to Florida growers.
One of these varieties, ‘ACcentuate’ is a high yielding sh2 yellow sweet corn that has good tip fill and straight rows. Its large ears make it well adapted to shorter days and stress conditions. It’s a late season variety, maturing in 81 days, with a great husk package, and a clean plant type that resists lodging. It has high resistance to Ps, Et, Bm, and Pst.
