Well,  everyone got it right to some extent.  It’s definitely corn. Bluecrystaldude was the first to give the right answer …and it is indeed some funky corn topiary art that I’ve run across at different gardens in Thailand. The first being Nong Nooch Tropical Gardens and the second being Million Years Stone Park.

You can see in the the first two pics it gets kinda brown looking after a while and of course the animals gnaw on it a little too…and at least one hungry Thai girl that I know. So they pull them from display and re-corn them.

Bluecrystaldude of Hot Shit Form Here Will be sent 500 Entrecard credits for the winning answer and everyone else will get some link love because there are some great blogs to see here.

Carol got the corn part right so you should definitely check out her Genealogy blog called Ipentimento

Monaco guessed corn stacks and they are nothing if not corn stacks and she has a blog called Read my Mind which is a very good read about everything going on in the news and on the net.

Next up is Miah who guessed corns and there are definitely more than one so… Miah has a cool blog MeiYah~Miah Laborte and a beautiful smile :) Check out her post on Balut…it might make you hungry.

Sunny guessed huge piles of corn and that works for me. His blog Happi like a HiPPo is about a place I love, Thailand. A very good read written by an expat.

My Bug Life didn’t know what it was which makes me sad because she has a beautiful smile too and a blog that will definitely make you hungry…but, since I love her blog, Foodie and Travel Bug, I’m going to have to make an exception.

And God Created Woman thought they were corn silos which is always a good answer and he has a blog dedicated to something I absolutely love…Women…and the Halle Berry pics are very nice.

SG Entrepreneur Was going with the xmas theme a little early but he has a blog about Singapore Entrepreneurs so he was thinking outside the box. A very good post on Singapores Social Entrepreneurs awaits…

Last but not least was Nomadic Matt with a very emphatic Corn!! or was it angry…Angry corn kinda works for me. Matt has a great travel blog, Nomadic Matt’s Travel Site Some great tips can be found here and with out a doubt some great pictures and a nice community feel.

Next time I’ll make it harder than corn!!

    These pictures are beautiful. It is amazing what people can use to be creative. What happens with the corn when they take it down? Is it composted or used for animal feed? I hope so.

      You know, I’m not sure what they do with it but my guess is it becomes pig feed as there is a large pig farm next to the one garden.
