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.

I recently had another seedling from this cross bloom and it was a single white. The blooms had a nice Aurea form and were thick in texture.  I'm not sure what I'll do with this one, but meanwhile it continues to grow and bloom.
