Description/Taste


Glass Gem corn is smaller than commercial corn varieties, averaging 5 to 20 centimeters in length, and has a cylindrical, straight shape. The cobs are encased in several layers of a textured, semi-rough husk, and when young, the husk has a pliable feel with green hues, darkening and drying into a papery, brown, and brittle covering once ready for harvest. When the husk layers are peeled back, the narrow cob is revealed, covered in oval to oblong, plump kernels. Each cob will be unique in coloring, and the kernels can be found in translucent shades of emerald, bright green, ruby, dark blue, amethyst, pink, white, and yellow. The kernels also contain a hard outer layer to protect the soft interior, creating a firm and chewy consistency. Glass Gem corn has an opalescent quality with high starch content. The kernels are not commonly consumed fresh and are primarily dried. When processed, they contain a neutral, unsweetened, starchy taste.


Glass Gem corn is available in the early Autumn.

It was lots of fun to gather these seeds get them ready to share with you.
