Narrative
This is an advanced cycle of selection for popping traits in 'Little Red Flint, population developed from flint corn population crossed to popcorn. Its main eye catching characteristic is the deep orange (slightly reddish) color of its kernels. We've had a little trouble tracing the exact origin of the original Little Red Flint, but our best guess is that it comes from "Cuarentine," a small-kernelled, small-eared flint corn found in Uruguay. It was crossed to the Amber Pearl popcorn group.
