TreeClimber, it looks like the leaves of Datura Stramonium var. Tatula, an annual. It will grow very well in a container. In fact, it is good to crowd the roots so that the plant will grow more compact. These Daturas have a tendency to get long and lanky if their roots aren't restricted somewhat. It sounds like someone made up the name "Curly Locks," perhaps because the blooms unfurl in a curly-type manner. This annual self-seeds easily so collect seeds after the pod dries and cracks open slightly.
