the northern tepehuan teosinte in my back yard flowered during the past week and has grown in the process ...it's now standing 75 1/2 inches and i think it has more to go...this explains the multiplicity of tiers of support roots it has sprouted ( even though i had staked it up some time ago because it kept falling over)...one of the two survivors on campus if beginning to flower as well so there is the possibility of cross-pollinating the two in an attempt to insure seed production...if the season lasts long enough...i am told teosinte is slow to set seed and there may not be enough time
