A wild and crazy looking Angel Trumpet

Today's featured Angel Trumpet seedling is the 7th seedling to bloom from a brugmansia cross made by Volker Sanders involving Color Point x Double Dark Rosetta.  There's no color in this one but it does have a wild and crazy looking bloom.  The blooms are nice and plump and so far this plant has remained much smaller than the other seedlings from this cross.
