Flower of the Day – Cotton Bolls

It’s cotton harvest time here. These cotton bolls show up in the floral departments to use in arrangements this time of year. I like how they look, and adds a local touch, too.

These are cotton bolls. They are sometimes used in flower arrangements to add a bit of interest, especially around here. We have fields after fields of cotton growing. In the fall they look like fields of snow. Then they harvest the cotton and take it to the gin for processing.

Here’s a partial quote from Wiki about our cotton: “…The Lubbock area is the largest contiguous cotton-growing region in the world…”

Flower of the Day – Big Bloom

I think this is a Chrysanthemum. It’s a big bloom in shades of pink, burgundy, and purple.

Flower of the Day – Deep Pink Petals

I don’t know what this flower is, but the deep pink petals and yellow center look as if a spotlight is shining on it.
