The Cotton Blooms

Cotton flower


Typically, the blooms appear 8-10 weeks into planting. And after the blooms are done with being white, they turn purple! Both are so pretty. Thank you honey for telling me about the color change.

    Dennis wonders--do you pick the cotton before it blooms? what happens to the bloom when it wilts?

    Dennis, I think you pick the cotton after it blooms. I'm not sure what happens if the bloom wilts.

    I love what an inquisitive cat you are!
