It grows like a climber when it gets a support of nearby bushes.<\/span> Flowers leaves fruits look totally different than cultivated species<\/p>\n

Malvaceae week 09 05 2011 UD 003 Gossypium herbaceum \u2018nigrum\u2019 NYBG 08<\/a>: Since about 1999 we had been seeing this BLACK\u2026actually a deep violet leafed cotton with very pretty \u00a0deep pink Hibiscus like flower \u2026 in several botanical gardens and some garden clubs \u2026 but I got my chance to do some digital photo taking in 2008 at NYBG\u2026 at the height of the summer of 2008 .. the flowers were just beginning to open when I ventured in\u2026 \u00a0 no pods had developed yet\u2026 \u00a0but I can tell you they are usually about two inches and look like any regular cotton pods \u00a0and burst open in October ( or there abouts) \u00a0to reveal perfectly white regular cotton puffs\u2026.<\/div>\n

This so far is a rare garden plant, people often wait for long time to swap seeds, and garden clubs are a good source in USA \u2026 some members may have some to swap\u2026<\/div>\n
I am just happy to look at my pictures\u2026 this plant was about \u00a024 to 28 inches tall, \u00a0its spread about 3 feet, leaves were 6-7 inches long and 6 inches wide,\u00a0fig 2 shows that its markedly hirsuit\u2026 and perhaps even \u00a0has
\nsome glands??<\/div>\n
Any experts on botany of cotton here?<\/div>\n
Can you please tell us what these round dots are?<\/div>\n
The flowers open in morning , are 4.5 to 5 inches in diameter., \u00a0and close at nite\u2026 \u00a0 pods develop slowly, bursting open in the fall\u2026 ( see above) .<\/div>\n
\n

Since it is a a cultivar the name also has to be within single quotes. Also I think Nigra (with capital N) is preferred cultivar name and as such correct name should be Gossypium herbaceum<\/i> ‘Nigra’ or Gossypium herbaceum<\/i>
\ncv. Nigra
\nHad this been a published scientific variety (unfortunately none has been published) the name would have been Gossypium herbaceum<\/i> var. nigrum<\/i> (with small n and in italics).<\/p>\n

\n

You are right, I had searched, found none… and so I thought I just did not know where to look… \u00a0may be I still dont… but its good to know it has not been published…<\/p>\n
