Kwanto Wase is a Japanese short-grain landrace variety. It is considered an upland variety and was received by the USDA NPGS in 1947. This is a very tall variety reaching 4 foot and yet it had no issues with lodging. The maturing panicles are quite beautiful and are awnless. Kwanto Wase began flowering 66 days after transplanting and was harvested  at 118 days from transplanting. The yields was very good at 9 pounds per 100 square foot bed (approx. 100 plants). Polished Kwanto Wase cooked up fairly firm, somewhat sticky and had a pleasant rice flavor! One of my favorites for fried rice!
