Mr. Coxe states that about 1895 some Sea Island cotton was grown on his farm near a field of Texas Wood. The Sea Island cotton was not a success and was discarded, but the next year hybrid plants were found, and the seed from one which seemed promising was saved, and the Yellow-Bloom variety was developed from it. In growth it is similar to Texas Oak or Peterkin and is very uniform, except that plants.

Flowers without petal spots, clear lemon- yellow in color; bolls medium in size, 50 per cent 5-locked; lint of fair length, similar to Peterkin in quality, percentage high; seeds small, fuzzy, greenish or brownish gray, or a few nearly smooth. Bolls per pound, 75; seeds per pound, 4,950; average length of lint, mm. (|| inch), varying from 20 to 25 mm.; strength of single fibers, 6 gms.; per cent of lint", Crawford.
