Melissa, Datura are typically grown as annuals (from seed)in our zones. In your zone, I would recommend starting them from seed inside 6-8 weeks before your last frost. Here is another thread at Daves that better explains the differences.

Kell, I love your CG standard - - all of your pictures are always so beautiful. I have a large sucker on my CG that I am going to root and train as a standard as soon as my one bloom falls off. And I agree with you on being more cautious now that Stanglebrand is showing up more and more here in the US. I am going to limit acquiring plants from growers that I know and trust.

Root, this picture is for you. It is my effort at having a mini-container jungle in Tennessee. This year, I have been inspired by many of the DG pictures and will have a whole bed devoted to tropicals (yes, I now have bananas!).
