This is another great brugmansia from seedsprout nursery, especially good for those of you who live in the warmest zones of the U.S.
Lemon Meringue thrived all summer long. Her leaves retained their dark green coloration even when grown in full summer sun. As soon as I arrived home in sept she had already begun to set buds and now has begun blooming. This phase of the bloom the blossoms are two toned and remain this way for several days. As the blossom fully opens it becomes pristine white. It has nice size to the blossoms as well, much larger than say Golden Lady. I have had no deformed blooms on this plant. Truly a top notch cultivar....if she keeps up like this all winter she will quickly move into the ranks of my top ten brugs.
