I wonder what the maze people grow... their corn was 10 feet tall and they didn't plant it till June 1. Course, They probably choose corn for the big stalks now... the cobs taste like rubber, but they don't care, they're just for show :~)

Heh...this is quite likely. I wonder if they also water them pretty continually until they open the maze...could help.

I couldn't resist...went ahead and cooked up that one little cob. It tasted like pretty decent corn, which is all I can ask of it! Not as sweet as some, but that's OK by me.

I won't get a *lot* of ears out of this garden, but it's kinda cool that some things made it.

I also have a few hugh squash I'd forgotten I planted. I'm wondering if I'd better pick 'em before they get even bigger.
