All this talk of sweetcorn & butter has had me salivating up to the lottie.

Just picked our first two. :-)


Just about to get them out of the steamer & butter them.  ;D

That's obviously why Kite germinated well, and NES poorly; I hadn't realised supersweets need the extra heat. Something to change for next year!

I don't know why my corn has done so well this year. Last year was rubbish pollination... only a few kernels per cob.

I've done nothing different this year. Who knows?
