Having grown up in Indiana, I know what a corn plant is supposed to look like (Knee high by the forth of July). Obviously, this corn plant is way shy of that. In fact, this whole variety of fast growing corn that I planted is extremely puny-looking. I started them in the house, then transplanted them outside, but outside was still too cold for them, but I guess they tried.
What surprised me was that despite the hardships they endured, this plant has sent out tassels and a small ear is ready to be pollenated. I can’t wait to see what happens. Maybe I will get one of those miniature ears of corn you sometimes see in a salad.
