With the parents this Angel Trumpet seedling has, brugmansia (Double Dark Rosetta x Angel's Flight) x Pink Perfektion. you would think some color would be injected into this bloom. Nothing special here but it should be noted that it is blooming during the hot Florida Summer months and it is staying snow white.

Wednesday, September 2, 2009 / Author: Sommer Gardens / Number of views: 6432 / Comments: / Article rating: No rating Petite and ruffly.... Today's featured white Angel Trumpet is a cross between brugmansia Jazzy x Miss Ellie. Both are single yellows so I was surprised to see a double white as the result.This seedling was a carry over from last fall and it has been blooming on and off all summer. I'm not sure it is worthy of naming and registering, but I do want to cross it back to both it's parents this fall in hopes of getting some color. The blooms are petite with long corolla tubes. The plant is not phased by the heat or ... Categories:Brugmansia Tags:Angel TrumpetBrugmansiajazzymiss ellie Read more

Sunday, August 30, 2009 / Author: Sommer Gardens / Number of views: 4934 / Comments: / Article rating: No rating Another glimse of sunshine... Orange Sunshine that is. Here's a bloom from another Angel Trumpet seedling from the cross of brugmansia Orange Sunshine x Pink Smitty. The first bloom to open on this seedling was a stuffed one as you can see below. The remaining blooms in this initial flush were more stacked. The blooms lasted for several days under our hot Florida sun and they filled the air with a pleasant fragrance at night. If it maintains those traits during the rest of the summer I'll make some crosses with it ... Categories:BrugmansiaSeedlings Tags:angel trumperBrugmansiaORANGE SUNSHINEPINK SMITTY Read more
