Narrative
Aarens Heritage is a broad-based synthetic (AES 800-1100) composed of inbreds, single crosses, and F2 populations. Mr. Aarens worked his material as a single breeding population, not separating heterotic groups. He developed double-cross hybreds testing under low nigrogen, low population environments. This material is large-eared and often multiple-eared.
