Popcorn!

Chris that is very pretty. My neighbor grows this on his farm and his glass gem has more dark jewel tones and fewer pinks, almost none your color. You said you had a small plot. Did you use just the pink tassels and hand pollinate?

I was at the farm today and he must have harvested this past week. Last year the ears were only about 6-8 inches and they were almost a foot this year. I haven't been over to see the colors yet. I'll find out how many plants her grows instead of guessing but its just for decoration.
