Here's an Angel Trumpet marriage with mixed results. The first photo of this cross between Brugmansia Miss B Haven and Miss Emily Mackenzee is a seedling that looks just like its momma. Actually it is more like a pink version of its mother, Brugmansia Miss B Haven.  Miss B Haven is a multi-skirt white Angel Trumpet introduced by Brenda Delph a few years ago.Here's another seedling from the Brugmansia Miss B Haven x Miss Emily Mackenzee cross. This Angel Trumpet seedling bloomed earlier this ...

Just joking of course!  This Angel Trumpet is one of the more unusual ones I have been watching.  The blooms are unlike any I have seen and consistently have green coloration in them.  The cross is Brugmansia Painted Lady x Sam.  Typically the blooms do not stay as green as this one has, but this bloom ended up with very little pink in it.At first I thought environmental conditions were causing the blooms to be green, but after propagating the plants and growing this cultivar in various ...

During my recent Bloomapalooza I was overwhelmed with honey bees.  I think the northern bee farmers are already relocating their hives to Florida for the winter.This lone bee is sipping away on a new bloom from a Brugmansia Jamies Monkey Business x Day Dreams seedling.  I think I'm going to have lots of rogue seed pods this spring.  That can be a good thing because I will harvest the pods and donate the seeds to the International Brugmansia & Datura Society (iBrugs.com) so they can give them ...

This is one out of control Angel Trumpet bloom!  It is the first seedling to bloom from a cross I made between Brugmansia (Bert x Unknown) x Genevieve.It looks like something you would only see for sale on eBay. It will be interesting to see how this seedling develops.  Typically new seedlings with multi-skirt blooms will see the blooms evolve over the first few bloom cycles.  Often they get better, but sometimes they stay ugly or even get uglier.  As you can see, the second flower already ...

When I came across this new Angel Trumpet bloom I was totally amazed.  With the flower measuring almost 11 inches across, it was the largest single yellow/orange bloom I had ever encountered. This Momma sized bloom is from a seedling involving a cross between Brugmansia Ludger's Windsong x (Color Point x Double Dark Rosetta) #6.The photo above shows how the blooms start out on day #1.  By the second day the blooms have re-curved and become squatter.  The orange color also deepens as the ...

Seeing how we do not have the traditional fall color change down here in Florida, I have decided share photos of the golden color we do have.  During the next 7-10 days I'm going share photos of golden colored Angel Trumpet blooms.  They will all be from seedlings that have either just recently bloomed, or are currently in bloom.  I'll start with a photo from this very promising Angel Trumpet seedling involving a cross between Brugmansia Ludger's Windsong x (Ludger's Summer Dream x ...

Brugmansia Lizzy is one great brug!  It blooms more than any double/triple brugmansia I have in my collection...and I have lots.  Here are a couple of photos I shot last night.  Despite having 3 consecutive days of record setting high temperatures, the blooms still look fresh. Lizzy is an Angel Trumpet that I grew from seed and registered last year. It came from a Liz Fichtl cross involving Brugmansia Rubirosa x The Chief.  The plant is a vigorous grower and has stayed pest free.  I hope to ...
