Pantone 680 color match.
A leaf from my Variegated String of Hearts plant my sister gave me that almost died but came back to life 😅 Good thing I decided to hang on to it and gave it a chance. It survived on 4 leaves then it grew back again after a year 🙌 I was so happy!
Happy Valentine’s Day to those who are celebrating it! 🩷😊
Glass Gem Corn seeds color wheel
(the set from my Pantone color matches)
When I found out about this fascinating corn variety a couple of years ago, I’ve been wanting to take color match photos of the stunning multicolor kernels.
Its origin traces back to Carl Barnes, a part-Cherokee farmer living in Oklahoma. Barnes had an uncanny knack for corn breeding. More specifically, he excelled at selecting and saving seed from those cobs that exhibited vivid, translucent colors. After many years, his painstaking efforts created this wondrous corn cultivar called Glass Gem Corn.
So glad I’m finally able to match their colors! See my page to see the Pantone color matches 😊
