Perhaps the most beautiful cor variety known is Glass Gem, with its magnificent rainbow colors. Furthermore, the background story is as fascinating.

It all began when Carl Bar¿es, an Oklahoma farmer, decided to investigate his Native American ancestry. He started cultivating older cork kinds in his early years as a means of honoring his ancestry. He was particularly skilled at choosing and saving seed from cobs that displayed bright, distinct hues. He had a knack for cor¿ breeding. This ultimately led to a rainbow-colored cork.

When the Glass Gem corvin became viral in 2012, Bares’ protegee Greg Schoe¿ narrated the story of this unique corvin variation in great detail.

Bartlett was able to identify ancestral sorts that had been lost to Native American tribes when they were moved to what is now Oklahoma in the 1800s while experimenting with these older cork species. This culminated in an exchange of imaginary correspondences with individuals he had encountered and developed friendships with around the nation.

Nobody knows for sure how many seashells he carefully selected, preserved, and replanted, but after many years, his painting endeavors produced a work of art that has enthralled people all over the world.

At a conservative-planning gathering in Oklahoma in 1994, Bares met his fellow farmer, Greg Schoeο. Bares had his rainbow-hued cork o’clock. He was blown away by Schoe.

Bartlett offered Schoe¿ some of the rainbow seed that next year. The first seedlings to sprout were spotted by Schoe¿.

Schoe¿ and Over time, Bares remained good friends with Schoe¿, and further samples of the rainbow seed were sent to Schoe.

When Schoe¿ came to New Mexico in 1999, he first grew modest amounts of the colorful corn.

Along with other traditional kinds, Schoe¿ started growing larger plots of the rainbow cortés in 2005, near Santa Fe.

A few straws were produced when the rainbow corries were combined with the traditional kinds. The coral showed more vibrant hues and patterns every year.

The various hues and patterns that appeared, such as “circle colors,” “rainbow colors,” “deep blue,” and so on, were fascinating to Schoeο.

 

Schoe¿ finally arrived with the renowned “Glass Gems” for a pale, green, and purple cork he planted in 2007. This is the original photo that went viral in 2012, displaying the unique hue of the cork in an ITER-SATONIA.

Since then, the Glass Gem has undergone even greater selection and refinement to become the beautiful rainbow that it is today.
