Sommer Gardens / Friday, July 23, 2010 / Categories: Uncategorized Angel Trumpet Hot Summer flushes (part 2) Considering this plant is only two feet tall right now, Brugmansia Andrew's Gold still makes an impact. This one did not have a tag, but I am fairly certain it is Painted Lady. The blooms just opened tonight and are a very pale pink. If it is Painted Lady, the blooms will be much darker by tomorrow. Here's one I plan to release to the public next spring. It is a cross between Brugmansia Adeline and Miss Emily Meckenzie. The blooms are super sized and the plant almost always has blooms on it. Like many pinks in Florida, the color darkens in the cooler months. The cream colored blooms below are from a seedling involving a cross between Brugmansia Color Point and Dark Rosetta. I think the stray pink bloom on the left is a Brugmansia Velvet Rose x Dorthea seedling. Here's one that really grabs your attention at night. The cross is Brugmansia Rubirosa x Sam. I'm anxious to see what this one does in the cooler weather. Even in the summer heat, the blooms will darken much more than the color displayed in the photo below. This yet to be named seedling is on my list to register and release this fall. It is from a cross between Brugmansia L'amour x Charles Grimaldi. I do not think this plant has been without a bloom so far this entire summer! Brugmansia Kelly Anne has been an over achiever here in Florida. It is a fast grower that blooms and blooms and blooms. The blooms will darken as they age. If you look closely you can still see a couple of seed pods hanging in the center. I think this is enough eye candy for one night. All these plants are blooming right now. In addition to these, there are lots more that just have a few blooms or the blooms are not photo quality. With all the new seedlings that are just setting buds, expect lots more eye candy in the weeks to come!Don't believe people who say that Angel Trumpets do not bloom during the hot Florida summers.
