Sounds great - I would like to try them but haven't seen them in the seed catalogs up here in MA. Hey, my grandmother was shocked to see that Americans ate corn! They gave it to the cows.

All we've got so far is asparagus, spinach, peas and lettuce. And the lettuce doesn't look anything like my head shot. My tomatoes are under 24" and the squash and beans are barely past the seed leaves. Artichokes and potatoes healthy, beets look sick, eggplants got bugs, onions and shallots hopeful, no sign of parsnips, Windsor beans thriving. We pruned the grapes too severely and they look like we'll have a bowlful, no jam.
At least - after they ate five of my ten pepper plants 18" to the ground, left stumps - the new fencing is keeping out the woodchucks so far.
Every year is different. We only have 25x50 feet .
