Description
For one day only, if you are lucky, you will catch the cotton plants blooming. A bloom will not pollinate after the first day. The creamy or white petals of the flower turn pink after 24 hours and shed within a week as the fertilized ovules of the ovary grow into a boll. In most of the Cotton Belt, the effective bloom period occurs from late June or early July to mid-August. The creamy or white petals of the flower turn pink after 24 hours and shed within a week as the fertilized ovules of the ovary grow into a boll.
