Look at the perfect shape of this Angel Trumpet bloom on a new seedling from a cross I made between Brugmansia Painted Lady x Mon Amour de Mareuil.I captured these photos last week when the weather was cooler.  I'm certain the pink color will deepen in warmer weather and we should see much less green in the corolla tube.I 'm anxious to see how this seedling evolves this spring. I really like the form of this medium sized bloom.  If the corolla tube colors up it will be a winner for sure.

When a new Angel Trumpet seedling produces single pink blooms, it really has to stand out to get my attention. This new seedling did just that. It is from a Volker Sanders cross involving Brugmansia Color Point x (Double White x Double Dark Rosetta).The long lasting, wide bodied blooms were a vibrant pink, with the pink color extending all the way up the corolla tube as the bloom matured.  I really like the way this seedling's first blooms were displayed in a cluster at the top of the ...

Many of my Brugmansia seedlings are switching into bloom mode for the first time and now the challenging task of deciding which ones are worthy of watching begins.  Here's one from a cross I made between Brugmansia Cherub x Orange Parfait.It has a simple elegant look to it, but I'm not certain it is special enough to carry forward.  I'll probably watch this one for a few more bloom cycles to see how it performs as the seedling matures.

When I first spotted this Angel Trumpet seedling in bloom, I was totally surprised by the color.  It displayed a unique color I had not encountered with my Brugmansia seedlings before.  Unfortunately it is missing a tag so I have no idea what cross this is from.The color starts out a nice salmon pink, but then slowly matures to a color I would describe as a dark papaya or mango like. You really have to see it in real life to appreciate how beautiful the color is.  No other brugmansia I know ...

I was pleasantly surprised last week to find golden blooms on one of my Brugmansia Angels Exotic x Inca Sun seedlings.I'm growing out a bunch of Angel Trumpet seedlings from this cross and so far most have been white or cream colored.  The blooms on this one started out cream, but matured to more of a creamy yellow color.  The blooms are also smaller than most brugmansia blooms. I expect this one to be a good bloomer, just like its parents.  The fact that it impressed me with a mini-flush of ...

Here's another Angel Trumpet seedling I have been watching for a couple of years and now think it is worthy of keeping.  The cross is Brugmansia Adeline x Rosalie.I like the deep pink color on this one and the fact the color runs all the way up the corolla tube. This plant has been a consistent bloomer and the blooms are always in perfect form.  This seedling has combined the best traits of both parents and it shows in its blooms.I've made several crosses with this seedling as the pod ...

I've been watching this Angel Trumpet seedling grow and bloom for the past two years and decided it is ready to be moved from my watch zone to keeper status.  This seedling resulted from a cross I made between Brugmansia Pink Smitty x Rubirosa.This seedling has plenty of good traits, one of which is that it is a bloomaholic.  It is also a fast grower and has remained relatively pest free here in Florida and thrives in the heat.Watch this one to be named and officially registered by summer.
