I recieved a surprise packet of seeds marked "Angel Trumpet" mix of Purple and White. See picture of seeds below.

Are these Brugmansia seeds? I kind of just tossed them aside, not thinking about what they could be. I kind of thought maybe they were Dactura ..... the color purple sent my mind in that direction.

Are there Purple Brugs???

The seeds were sent to me in 2004, but I don't know when they were collected. How long are Brug seeds viable (if these are Brug seeds).

Is there a thread someplace for growing Brugs from seeds? Is it easy? How long from seed to flower?

It never occurred to me to grow a Brug from seed, but if it's possible, I'd like to give it a try. I wouldn't want the seeds to go to waste ... ;-)
