Sommer Gardens / Wednesday, September 26, 2012 / Categories: Brugmansia, Seedlings New fall color in my brugmansia jungle Now that summer is winding down and the nights are starting to cool off ever so slightly (like a low of 72 versus 76 is really that cool), my Angel Trumpet seedlings are starting to finally hold their buds and bloom. Based on some of the blooms I have recently experienced, I expect fall to be full of surprises. Here's a new seedling that recently bloomed that has already set the bar very high for fall. It is from a cross I made between Brugmansia Angels Swingtime x (Shooting Star x New Orleans Lady).The bright orange color is just as rich when you see it in real life as it is in these photos. I'm sure the color will be even deeper when the weather cools off more.The foliage on this seedling is a deep green and is nice and smooth. Many of the double orange European imports I have in my collection like Brugmansia Langenbuscher Garten and Herbstzauber have funky looking foliage so it is exciting to think that they could be replaced in the future.I wish I knew which one of my Brugmansia Shooting Star x New Orleans Lady seedlings was the father of this beauty. I have several in my watch zone and the blooms are different on each one, from a single frilly pink to a single yellow and double cream. This seedling is now in my ever expanding watch zone. I hope it continues to impress me as it matures Slug-a-Palooza!
