When a new Angel Trumpet displays its first bloom, you never know what the future may hold for it.  Sometimes the blooms get better, sometimes they get worse, and often they bounce back and forth between good and bad.  Well this first bloom on a seedling from a cross between brugmansia Pink Smitty x The Chief is nothing to get excited about.But with the great parents it has, it is certainly worth watching for a few months.  My gut feeling is that the next set of blooms will be a major ...

Here's another Angel Trumpet seedling from cross between brugmansia Orange Sunshine x Pink Smitty.  As you may recall this is one of the crosses I made where I am growing out a bunch of seedlings so I can document the range of diversity in the blooms.  This cross has been producing numerous double white blooming seedlings.  This seedling is producing nice separated skirts.  It's first bloom was actually a mini flush of 6 blooms and all had dropped skirts like this one.  Nothing really ...

I'm starting to see a bunch of new Angel Trumpet seedlings with double/triple blooms.  Here's one that has a nice soft pink color to it like its mother.  It is the result of a cross between brugmansia Peace x Mon Amour de Muriel.  As with most new doubles, you have to watch them through several bloom cycles to see what they want to do.  Often the blooms get much better, but it some cases they start throwing singles and deformed blooms.  I've had several that were so ugly at the start that I ...

After a week's worth of whites, I thought I would show a photo of the most colorful Angel Trumpet seedling I had in bloom last night. This is a missing tag brugmansia seedling so the parentage is unknown.  The color is a very deep pink that almost appears red as the bloom matures.  This seedling is a carry over from last year that I planted in my yard.  It survived the freeze and has been blooming since June.  This one may end up on my TBR list and will certainly be used is some crosses this ...

This white Angel Trumpet is one of my favorite single whites I'm watching this summer.  I have to admit I'm a sucker for blooms with crazy tendrils.

This white Angel Trumpet is one of my favorite single whites I'm watching this summer.  I have to admit I'm a sucker for blooms with crazy tendrils.  This seedling is from a cross made between brugmansias Creamsicle and Dorthea.The blooms are large and they appear in flushes.  I'll be anxiously waiting to see if the blooms stay white in the cooler fall weather.Oh, and the blooms have a nice fragrance too!

This is my self proclaimed white Angel Trumpet week!  From today through Labor Day each one of my daily featured brugmansia seedlings will be white.

This hybrid brugmansia cross between Orange Sunshine and Pink Smitty has already produced a bunch of single white Angel Trumpets.
