Looking for a special cultivar

Redlands, CA(Zone 10a)

I am interested in finding a Brugmansia cultivar I saw a few years ago called "Purple People Eater". It was striped purple and white and from what I understand even the foliage was varigated. If you know of which I speak or, you just think I'm madder than a box of frogs, please tell me. Thanx- Bagpypr

Yup, sounds like it might be a Datura of some sort to me (if it exists). Definitely not a brug, though.

Thanks Streaver. That is indeed the flower I saw. Missouri Marble, the proper name is it? The other with the leaf varigation is rather stunning though. When I had seen it before in Atlanta two years ago I was given that name( it was a photo of just the flower) and have looked for it for a long time. If you ever go to Atlanta they have an incredible botanical garden with one of the most phenomenal orchid houses I've ever seen. Thanks again- Bagpypr
