Daily Botanical: Dangerous Alley Corn

I came across this rogue cornstalk about a month ago while biking down a Montreal alley. It was growing right in front of the gate, which means no one is coming out alive! Well, at least through this exit anyway.

some pretty good soil in that alleyway. it takes a good amount of nitrogen in the soil to make corn stand tall.

I love it! I particularly like the doggy bearing his teeth, like he’s got the corn’s back.
