Answer 8

Plants! In fact I just picked one the other day while visiting the Hermitage (Andrew Jacksons plantation) in Nashville! When the plants mature the large tennis-ball sized buds on top open displaying the dry cotton. The open buds are sharp and painful to pick. The plants are fairly short, probably about waist or chest high on me and I'm 5'4. Hope this helps!

Answer 9

Plants are a major group of living things including familiar organisms such as trees, flowers, herbs, bushes, grasses, vines, ferns, and mosses.

Cotton plant is a bush.

It is not exactly tall as tree nor short like 2 ft. So dont disagree with eachother ....coz both of u r wrong hahahahha .....kidding.

I think you would be correct. Money contains cotton fibers (the colored one that help prevent counterfitting) and cotton grows in small bushels or plants. Therefore, technically the COMPONENTS of money grows on a plant. However, the ink and machines do not.
