Sommer Gardens / Friday, March 4, 2011 / Categories: Brugmansia, Seedlings This Brugmansia seedling is a keeper for sure Now on its second year in my watch zone, this Angel Trumpet has earned itself keeper status. It is a Brenda Delph cross of Brugmansia Terri Schindler Shiavo x New Orleans Lady.The blooms are medium in size and carry New Orleans Lady pleasant scent.The coloring is also similar to that of its father, New Orleans Lady. All the blooms pictured here were sliced open for pollinating following this photo session so I do not have a decent picture of a fully colored bloom.I crossed this seedling back to both of its parents and I know for sure the New Orleans Lady cross took. More blooms should be open early next week and I plan to select some pollen that may help bring out a deeper orange color in the blooms. I noticed Brugmansia Terri Schindler Shiavo should be in bloom at the same time and you can be assured it will be crossed back to this one.This seedling should have a name and be officially registered by fall. Striking gold with this beautiful Angel Trumpet I just love this flowering tree! Print Rate this article: No rating 8507 Tags:Angel TrumpetBrugmansiabrugsnew orleans ladynolTerri Schindler Shiavotss
