Sommer Gardens / Tuesday, October 6, 2009 / Categories: Brugmansia, Seedlings I'm really liking this Angel Trumpet seedling This Angel Trumpet seedling has been an over achiever since it first bloomed in early summer. It is the result of a cross between a brugmansia Jacyana x The Chief seedling x an unknown father. I grew out about a dozen Jacyana x The Chief seedlings from seeds I obtained from Liz Fichtl. All but three were trashed, and of those remaining three, only one is a "keeper" that I plan to register this fall. The mother of this seedling was the only Jacyana x The Chief seedling that bloomed white, all the others were yellow/orange. The white blooms were nothing special, but I decided to grow out the unknown seed cross because of the parents. I do not think this seedling has been without a bloom all summer.The blooms are large and plentiful with a pleasant fragrance. This seedling has lush foliage and has remained pest free all summer. This weekend it will get chopped up for propagation. Based on the outcome of that, it may end up on my "to be registered" list. Thought I may have to exterminate this one You better look before you grasp! Print Rate this article: No rating 6720 Tags:Angel TrumpetbloomsbrugBrugmansiajacyanaSeedlingsthe chief
