Rather suspect that glossy, glassy, colored corn would be hard to paint.

This post is a welcome surprise because it is new info to me. Sure Indian Corn is a name most commonly known, but Gem Glass Corn was not. The lady in the video is working at something she loves and is growing her corn the way responsible people practice dog breeding. I appreciate leaning knew things and went to wiki to learn more; like this particular corn was developed in the 80’s and is edible as is Indian Corn.
I liked this video, thanks! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_Gem_Corn

Just finished putting up sweet corn from this year’s garden. My bicolor Temptress crop isn’t nearly as pretty as this lady’s. What a nice hobby she enjoys.
I remember this stuff as a kid. It was called “Indian Corn” back then. Many beautiful colors.

Our son has been growing garlic for over a decade and each year he selects the best and biggest heads to use for planting. It is now the size of “elephant garlic” yet it is regular garlic and with nice strong smell and flavor. Very healthy! He is also becoming very expert as his planting and grows most vegetables from seed. Last year I saved peach pits found on the ground under our trees and he sprouted them over winter in fridge and has planted those. Will be interesting to see what they come out like someday. This is a great hobby/way of life.

I wonder what the resulting popcorn would look like.

I grew Glass Jem a few years ago. It didn’t grow well at all.
From the dozen or so plants, I got three ears of corn and only one had any resemblance to the pics.

Gregor Mendel would be proud.
