I'm still waiting for Butterfly to bloom? She blooms up too?
I can see a match. I can't wait - beautiful pink!


Arlene, you know, we just GOT to cross it to the golden aurea, since both has this Datura habit. *lol*

Tonny, good point! Liz and Tonny, i wish you well with your seeds. i haven't gotten a thing to stick to BF, not even critters have. the way they hang on the stems, lots of them get wet inside. then again, i haven't had a bit of luck trying to pollinate. maybe i should just start practicing on everything!


Arlene, if the rain is the real problem maybe you should try and cover the stigma with alufoil after pollination and maybe remove the rest of the flower. Do you think it would help?

Very pretty flowers. Can't wait for bloom here. About two days. Hoorah!!
