If was going to create an Angel Trumpet postcard, this could be it.  The picture features a bloom from a seedling of a cross between brugmansia (Jamaica Yellow x Inca Sun) x Mon Amour de Mareuil.  The bloom is nothing special but it makes a nice picture.

This Angel Trumpet seedling's bloom has a striking resemblance to the first blooms of another seedling involving The Chief that I recently registered. That cross was featured here back in October.  I named it Lizzy and it was an offspring from a cross involving brugmansia Rubirosa x The Chief. Today's featured Angel Trumpet is from a cross of Brugmansia Pink Smitty x The Chief.  It is too early to tell if I have another winner on my hands. The first bloom, pictured below, was a triple. It ...

Here's a beautiful Angel Trumpet that has earned a spot in my "keeper" zone and is now awaiting a name so I can register it.  I grew this beauty from brugmansia seeds I purchased from JT Sessions at Country Gardens.  The cross is brugmansia Goldfinch x Peanut.The blooms are more petite than most doubles with a color that is hard to describe.  The cooler the weather, the darker the blooms.  As the blooms mature the tendrils appear to wrap even tighter towards the bloom.  This plant has ...

These pictures do not do really show how beautiful this Angel Trumpet seedling really is.  It is a carry over seedling from 2008 from a cross between brugmansia Butterfly x ((Tiara x Susanne) x Earth Angel).The blooms are large, long lasting, and quite showy.This one is quickly working its way up to my keeper zone.  Don't be surprised to see it named and introduced in 2010.

While we still have a couple of days until the full moon, this Angel Trumpet was glowing under the moonlit sky when I made my rounds tonight.  It's another seedling from the cross between  brugmansia Orange Sunshine and Pink Smitty.  The only thing special about this bloom is that it is a monster.  The face of the bloom has to be at least 12 inches across!

Today's features Angel Trumpet seedling is one I have been growing for a couple of years now.  It is a cross between brugmansia Color Point x Angel's Flight, both from Germany.  The blooms are large and plentiful and the plant is a vigorous grower. It has a very strong resemblance to its mother, Color Point. I have used this Angel Trumpet seedling in dozens and dozens of crosses since last year, both as a pod parent and as a father.  I'm hoping a few of the Angel's Flight genes have been ...

Today's Angel Trumpet is getting its act together with its form, but it is certainly needs an injection of color.  This seedling is an offspring from a brugmansia cross involving Miss 'B Havin x Seminole Moon.  Several blooms preceded the one pictured, but none have colored up more than this one shows.  We just had some cool weather move in so maybe that will have an influence on the next bloom that is about to open.  After shooting this photo I pollinated this bloom with some pollen from ...

Here's an Angel Trumpet seedling that bears a strong resemblance to its father, Rosalie.  Today's featured seedling is a cross between brugmansia Bernstein x Rosalie.  Now if we could just get Bernstein's bright orange color into this bloom, and add Rosalie's hardiness and blooming ability, we would surely have a winner.  This seedling has potential and will be used in further hybridizing.
