What Makes Survival Garden Seeds Different - non-GMO heirloom seeds

Bring beauty and flavor to your garden with Strawberry Popcorn Seeds from Survival Garden Seeds. This charming dwarf heirloom corn variety produces small, cone-shaped ears with deep red, jewel-toned kernels that resemble glowing strawberries. Perfect for both popping and ornamental use, these striking ears add visual appeal to garden displays, autumn décor, or homegrown popcorn nights.

Compact yet productive, Strawberry Popcorn plants grow to about 4 feet tall and yield 2–4 ears per stalk. The ears dry to a brilliant ruby red and pop into tender, delicious white popcorn when heated. It’s a fun, rewarding crop for gardeners of all ages and a unique addition to family vegetable gardens or heirloom seed collections.
