Speedie--

Where have you been??? I have had seeds for this datura for ages!
It is called "Black Currant Swirl"...
I also have seeds for a double Yellow Datura.

These are amazing! They grow, on one season, from seed to a massive,
blooming plant. Too late foe this season--but you can start it from seed
indoors next spring about mid-February--as they are slow to germinate.
Remind me before the Seed swap.
I can also send you the seeds now--and you can just hold on to them.

They are all toxic if ingested--same as a slew of other plants....
The plant can grow about 3' x 3' and may need staking.
I have a nice Primer i wrote on Datura care--also one on Brugmansia care.
