Let me know how it goes! It does sound very interesting. I wonder how well it gets pollinated…

There are now several varieties of corn that have been specifically bred for container culture. “On Deck” from Burpee is one, & this year I’ll be giving “Blue Jade” from Seed Savers Exchange a try in a large plastic 1/2 whiskey barrel-size tub. It’s described as only reaching 3′ tall with each stalk bearing 3-6 ears of old-fashioned-flavor sweet corn. And as added interest the kernels are a deep navy blue!! Can’t wait to see how this turns out.
