I planted my Earth Tones Dent Corn last night – not much came in the pack and I’m thinking about going back to Rural King to get some more.  I had to wait later to plant this than I wanted because my gardening neighbor also planted corn (to eat) and I didn’t want to cross pollinate and ruin his food crop!  So this is what it looks like (image borrowed from Johnny’s Selected Seeds):

 I’m going to attempt to make beads out of the dried kernels – hopefully those colors will as impressive off the cob as they are in the picture!
