Sommer Gardens / Tuesday, September 14, 2010 / Categories: Uncategorized Pretty in Pink, an Angel Trumpet seedling with promise Now that summer is winding down, my Angel Trumpets are gearing up for the fall Bloomapalooza. I must have captured photos of at least a dozen new promising Angel Trumpet seedlings in bloom for the first time tonight. Here's one that grabbed my attention right away. The bloom is from a cross involving Brugmansia Butterfly x Day Dreams. Besides having nicely shaped blooms, this seedling also had lush, green foliage with no evidence of pest or disease problems. The blooms are medium in size with a light fragrance. This seedling will make it into my watch zone to see how it performs over time. I also envision using it in a few crosses this winter. It has some good traits worth passing on. Unfortunately while out for my stroll I also noticed the caterpillars are back. Cats have been my number one pest problem this summer. Oh well, I would rather deal with caterpillars than broad mites.
