ornamental use maybe, You sure don't want to eat it. I fyou had a whole cotton patch you could take up spinning and weaving. Be careful tho, it is illegal to grow cotton in Georgia unless you monitor and control the boll weevil. Florida is not a cotton producing state, so they probably don't care.

That's "plant", and just enjoy it and be thankful you don't have to tend it the oldfashioned way we did when I was a kid! Lots of long, hot, hard work!
