Say hello to my little friend (again):
Another in a series of Datura updates

There hasn't been much to share since the last Datura post because the seeds I sowed took their sweet time to sprout. Of course, it was still chilly in February, even in the enclosed veranda.

But never mind all that. I've got new sprouts and blooms now. I thought that the D. tatula* flowers were going to open up three days ago, but they've only committed to emerging in the last couple of hours.




* Just when you thought it was safe to call it a D. stramonium variant, another recent source claims that D. tatula is its own species. The leaf shape certainly isn't like Stram.

Oh, here's a post about the Brugmansia that's off to the side in that last photo.
