Cool Jazzpunkin, hope you see blooms!

Jeanette, you and me both, I had no idea daturas got so big. I'm curious to see how well they bloom next month. The picture is of Currant swirls that are planted in the ground, that I took standing on my deck. They were eye level to above my head, and I'm 6'1, the deck is 3 feet off the ground.

Sherry - at least we may be getting beautiful blooms in October, when other zoneis are having to put theirs in the basement! :) - I've started alternating miracle grow in every other fertilizing. It's my theory that the high phosphate content in space city is an attracting factor for the scaly bugs. Either that or some ingredient. Any comments on that theory?
