Tony, thanks for sharing! those are some beautiful pics. I have what looks like the very same brugmansia, and this will be its fifth growing season. On Oct 30th I dug up and brought in all my bananas and other tropicals, but I decided to take a chance and leave out just that one particular Brug for two more days since it was so very full of almost opened buds. The local TV weather reports were conflicting about whether would be a light frost on that night or not. With mostly everything else in the garden dug up and in winter storage, this blooming Brug would have been an outstanding attraction, for the annual Halloween parade of children and parents ... but... of course there was a light frost that night! :ha:


Here's what it looked like after the frost 11-1-10:

Between Dean and I, we could send you a ton of those seeds Tony! I'll go out and check my pasture for you to see if I can find any from the fall. My horses eat the seed pods so it is doubtful, but we can get you some this fall when the pods are ripe.

Just noticed the Tsunami warning on the news for the west coast. Are all you California guys far enough inland?

If you find any seed laying around that would be great.As far as the Tsunami here there only expecting a 2.3 foot serge. It's low tide so shouldn't cause any problems.

Oh my GOSH! KILLER, Tony!

I have a little tiny Iochoma, that is a monster! Is that a potato bush? What is that last one in the purple/blue group?

I believe the last one with blue flowers is Sage.The tree with the purple bell flowers is beautiful,no idea what it is.

That one is Iochroma Tony. It is a relative of Brugmansia.

Do you know what the bush is that looks like it has both white and purple flowers on it? The blue/purple flower looks like a potato bush but the white mixed in doesn't.
