Default Re(2): growing popping corn


If you can find it other than at Shumway, you might want to try that. My
experience this spring with Shumway was not particularly good. Having not
ordered from a seed company before, I'm not sure it if was typical of all
seed companies, but I cannot imagine that it is or none of us would have
gardens.

It will be interesting to see what direction Shumway will take. They were
bought by Jung a couple of years ago and moved from Graniteville SC to
Wisconsin, Hopefully any problems would be due to the change in facilities and
staff. They have specialized in a wide variety of the older open pollinated
cultivars which are readily available from any other single source. They do
seem to be restricting their selections already, Few mailorder companies offer
much selection other than the tomato specialists.
