Sweet corn bicolor Sphinxx, also known as Spritz F1, is a high-quality hybrid developed by the French company Clause. This variety features bicolor kernels — white and yellow — giving the ears an attractive market appearance. The ears are uniform and well-formed, with a fully developed tip, large kernels that are tightly packed, ensuring density and juiciness. The average ear length is 21-23 cm, diameter 5-5.7 cm, with 16-18 rows of kernels. The weight of a standard ear ranges from 350 to 450 grams.
The plant is robust and compact, reaching a height of 170-175 cm, with a strong stem and minimal tillering. Typically forms 1-2 uniform ears, the first located at a height of 50-55 cm. The vegetative period is 73-74 days, allowing this variety to be grown under various climatic conditions. The corn exhibits high resistance to rust (HR: Ps (Rp1-GFJ)), significantly reducing disease risk and increasing yield.
Sphinxx is ideal for new markets due to its elite taste qualities: very sweet, tender, and delicious ears. This corn variety combines excellent market characteristics with adaptability, making it an attractive choice for farmers and consumers who value quality and stable yields.
