Jewel is a beautiful single dark pink blossom with some of the longest tendrils of any brugmansia I have grown. The 3-4 inch tendrils seem to extend out forever from the medium sized powdery smelling bloom.
The downside to Jewel is that she is a VERY slow grower. Here in Fort Lauderdale (land of the giant brugs) she has remained a very compact plant. The plant here in the picture is almost 3 years old. This is her first flush and she has quite a few buds coming in behind this one.
This is a pod sister to Fleming Island Rachel. The cross is Kleine Lady x Everlasting Ruby by German hybridizer Ludger Schneider and grown here in the states by John Scott.
This one, like Rachel was just recently released by the seedling parent.
