Seeds for Angel's Trumpet Flowers ( Datura and Brugmansia )
Tips on
Growing Brugmansia from Seed ( Brugmansia Growers
International )
Tips on
taking Brugmansia Cuttings ( Brugmansia Growers
International )
Datura and Brugmansia can be grown in tubs and pots in cooler climates, and directly in the garden in warmer climates.
The Datura/Brugmansia seed we do not
grow ourselves is provided from commercial growers from around
the world, and often the photo and information accompanying the
seed listing is from the grower. We have well meaning visitors
to our site from time to time who wish to correct us on a
listing or photo, but we must list the information as the
grower provides. We apologize if this causes any confusion, and
certainly appreciate any input from our customers.
We find that in growing these ourselves, sometimes an individual plant will produce somewhat different colors than shown ( while sister plants grown from same pack will be true ), this is the nature of datura and brugmansia seeds, especially from overseas growers. If you are growing seeds to sale plants, you should always allow plant to bloom before selling. If this varience is a concern, then you should not buy these seeds.
Datura
D9551 Golden Queen
Frilled Double
Large, beautifully frilled flowers of canary yellow. A showpiece in any garden, it boasts some of the largest and showiest blooms spring through fall. The blooms will face upwards and will produce a double (sometimes triple) trumpet. Each plant can have several blooms open at any given time. Although some Datura are without fragrance, this particular plant produces flowers with a delicate aroma that permeates the air at night. Their round, spiny seed pods burst open when ripe.
A half hardy annual growing to about 3-5 ft in height. This is a lovely plant bearing large, double golden-yellow trumpet flowers. Lots and lots of petal area. A magnificent new selection from seeds.
Very attractive to butterflies, hummingbirds and sphinx moths.

3590 Double White ( Datura metel )
The plant is quite compact in containers, reaching only about 1 to 2 feet high. In the garden, it forms a dense, well-branched shrub to 3 feet tall and slightly wider. Normally treated as an annual, the plant can be over-wintered in a greenhouse environment.
The ruffled Datura white double flowered like a Rose and with just a hint of cream at the center. This eye-popping datura looks like something from a hot-house instead of an easy-to-grow, sun-loving tropical you can start from seed. Beginning in early Summer and continuing until the Fall weather sets in, the plant is covered with magnificent blooms, so fragrant that a single plant perfumes the garden ( fragrance is less we have noticed when grown in containers ).
The flowers are immense with 6 to 8 inch flowers exquisitely whorled and twisted to show off their beauty. Green leaves complement the flowers. The stems and buds have a black currant stain. The flowers are followed by highly ornamental fruits, remaining decorative for long periods. All parts of plant are poisonous if ingested. Hardiness zones 7-11

LET730 Desert Thornapple ( Datura discolor )
A very nice and hardy datura that isn't appreciated as much for it's appearence as it is often used medicinally. Pure white, fluted funnelshaped blooms feature an alluring deep indigo center and sweet evening fragrance. The bloom season lasts till frost. A bit smaller foliage than other daturas with attractive bluish-green color.
Datura discolor has been used as an eye medicine, gastrointestinal aid and gynecological aid by southwest American indigenous peoples. We cite this only as an interesting bit of lore about the plant, we are not recommending it for medicinal uses.

IP120 Aquamarine Datura spp.
Nice compact plant with fragrant flowers, can be grown indoors. Rarely exceeds 36 inches tall, but can under some conditions.
A really beautiful datura well suited for container growing and outside gardens, but fast becoming a favorite as a houseplant.

The flowers are very beautiful and last a few days compared to the singles that last a day.
