Description
Our cotton plant model depicts the plant at the midpoint of its growing cycle, in the bloom stage. The cotton bolls haven’t developed yet, but the creamy white flowers show where they will form eventually. Since the plant hasn’t started to dry out in the bloom stage, our model’s accurately-shaped leaves remain green. Our craftsman took particular care in crafting the squares. They’re an oddly-shaped plant part. But since they’re what the flowers — and ultimately the bolls — develop from, they’re also important. We included several of them along the cotton plant’s branches. We typically enclose our plant models in a clear plastic case. The case sides attach to the base with thumbscrews, meaning you can remove the case if you want to. The case makes the model easier to transport, both by protecting it and by providing a handle on top you can use to carry it easily.
