Sommer Gardens / Thursday, May 5, 2011 / Categories: Brugmansia, Seedlings Brugmansia Cherub continues to influence her offspring Here is another offspring from the many crosses I made with Brugmansia 'Cherub'. This angel trumpet seedling is from a cross of Brumansia 'Cherub' x (Pink Smitty x Miss Ellie) #1.The picture above was taken on day one before it was fully open. As you have most likely guessed, this bloom was sliced open after I shot these photos so it could be pollinated. :) The bloom did open up to a very nice full double. The blooms on this seedling are medium in size and remain the soft pink color pictured above.The father of this seedling, Brugmansia Pink Smitty x Miss Ellie #1 (pictured below) is a nice double white I plan to register and release this summer. This was one of the first seedlings I placed in my watch zone back in 2008 and it has been a super performer the entire time. I'm still trying to get Miss Ellie's great yellow coloration into this style of bloom. So far I have not had any luck, but last week week both Miss Ellie and this seedling were in full flush so plenty of blooms from both plants were dusted with each others pollen. I'll know in a couple of weeks if any of those crosses took. This new Angel Trumpet seedling makes a spectacular debut.
