One of the better ornamental corn variety’s (IMO) seem to be Glass gem. Each of my plants had about 2-3+ ears. Im in zone 7a and it seemed to grow just fine. You can plant them however you like, but I found the best success with planting them in square blocks. Each plant 6 inches apart and each block about a foot apart. I'll be sending out 70 seeds per person. I don't think you'll need that much but always better safe than sorry. If you want a little more or less feel free to ask, I have tons of the stuff lol or if you have any questions about growing or anything else also feel free to ask.

Now to the actual give away...
All the usual stuff,
1. Fee
2. Fi
3. Fo- Fum
Etc.
Everyone’s a winner in this giveaway :P
I’ll cover postage, drawing in a week :)
now this isn’t the giveaway I was talking about in my earlier post, so stay tuned :P

You might want to consider something bigger than a SASE. Even with added protection, some seeds I send still get damaged, and corn kernels are bigger. Plus, they're right on that threshold that might fit in the USPS machinery. If they go through, I almost guarantee crushage. If you add padding, then it will likely be too thick, requiring extra postage.
Perhaps a small box or a padded envelope that would make it so it doesn't go through the mangler to begin with?
Just a thought.

I would Camden but these would be wasted on me as I am in an apartment. I will say glass gem is some absolutely gorgeous corn!

I didn't expect this to be too popular seeing as it is corn :P
