Wupperstolz blooms!

I was finally able to see a bloom on my Brugmansia Wupperstolz plant.  While the bloom was showing signs from taking a beating from our summer heat and thunderstorms, it still shows the potential beauty of this variegated Angel Trumpet. 

Wupperstolz-2.jpgWhen Wupperstolz bloomed for the first time a few weeks ago, I was out of town for work so I never was able to see the fully open bloom.  Besides the bloom that is open now I hope to see a few more later this week if the buds hold.

I have two additional double flowered Variegated Angel Trumpets in my collection that I an anxious to see bloom for the first time as well; Variegated Angel's Flight and Roberto.  Roberto may take a month or two because the plant is still small, but Variegated Angel's Flight is blooming size and has already set buds, but dropped them before they opened.
