But Southern Illinois is still Illinois!  The Bluford Corn was designed based on the cornfield across the street from their world headquarters, so it's not too far apart for *all* IL corn... but I can see how you'd want more density when just using a few strips in front of a backdrop.  Looking good!

I thought about painting the bases, but instead spread AZ Rock and Mineral "dirt" over the planted field to cover the green.  It was pretty easy to brush from the stalks after sprinkling, and glued down well.

Mike , that corn looks great . I wonder if the stalks could be stripped some and used as swamp reeds then planted in random with random heights .

Yes, you can certainly clip them from the base and plant individually.  The "stalk" is a great pin.
