When color beckens...

Every so often an Angel Trumpet has blooms whose color beckons you from far away.  This cross from brugmansia Rubirosa x (Peanut x Mt. Magic) was one of those. I must have had a dozen seedlings blooming in the same general area, but this one stood out from a hundred feet away.If it is this dark in the heat of summer, I wonder how intense the color will be when the weather cools?  This will be a watcher for sure.
