On July 10 I posted about my new burgundy cotton plant (named for the bloom color and not the cotton color). The other day I picked one of the bolls and am waiting now for it to dry out and get fluffy so I can spin the cotton and pick out the seeds to plant next year. Here's some interesting information on planting and harvesting cotton. Coincidentally the most recent issue of Spin Off magazine includes an article on growing cotton and I have a past issue that discusses the different colors of cotton. It's not all white!
