FREE: Cotton (Gossypium species)

The listing, Cotton (Gossypium species) has ended.

Cotton (Gossypium species) Has been grown for hundreds if not thousands of years, and has been cultivated for a fiber crop throughout the world's warm regions. After the large, attractive flowers fade, the fibers form around the large seeds, and may be removed, spun and worked into textile products. Although white cotton is the mainstream industry standard, the crop actually produces fibers in a range of colors, which may be spun and woven with no need for dyeing. We send seeds just as they were when harvested, still enclosed in the boll. This makes it readily apparent what color may be expected. An interesting and unusual crop more gardeners should try! Cotton is a heat-loving, long season plant.

When I planted these two seeds I had no clue as to what it was. It was in a small tin my elderly neighbor gave me and said it was a surprise. IT WAS. Until it, after a beautiful yellow and pink bloom, put on it's cotton puffs.

I only ship to Listia Verified addresses and you will get 4 seeds. Good luck and happy bidding...God Bless
