Glass Gem Corn
50 Seeds
Glass Gem is a flint corn variety that produces brilliant, glossy kernels in a seemingly endless spectrum of jewel-toned colors. No two ears are alike. The result of many years of careful breeding and selection by part-Cherokee farmer and breeder Carl Barnes. Almost too pretty to eat but can be ground into grits or a fine cornmeal. Reported by others to be suitable for popcorn, but we tried it and determined that there are better uses for this variety. Matures approximately 120 days after sowing. Each packet contains a minimum of 50 seeds.
