Random Acts of Corn

I was cleaning out my seed box about a month ago and found Silver Queen corn seed that I had purchased on a whim in 2011 but never planted. In my effort to use what I have I decided to add them to my Birthday Bed in random fashion and see what happens. The first round of seeds planted didn't take and I believe it was still too chilly for them. The 2nd round sprouted though and we're off with corn growing! From what I understand they are heat lovers, so I can't wait to see what they look like in July and August.
 

You can see the corn growing in the bottom right hand side of the bed next to the Sunflowers. They are little now, but I know they will catch up with the Mammoth Sunflowers soon.

 
Have you tried growing corn before?
