It’s snowing . . . in June? Oh, wait, that’s
right, it’s Cottonwood time. The annual
mess is one of my least favorite times of the summer. The white fluff is EVERYWHERE—in the garage, stuck
in other trees, in the birds’ water, clogging up the fountain, etc. The seedpods—produced only by female trees—are
sticky and thus nearly impossible to remove from clothing and
rugs. So far it’s been a poor season for
flowers (especially lilacs) but a bumper year for tree cotton.
