Need and ID on this one

Tuscaloosa, AL(Zone 7b)

This brug and its fellows are doing very well, about five feet tall and lots of blooms. But I have no idea what cultivar they are. Can someone tell me? The bloom starts out yellow, then changes to white as it begins to open, then becomes a deep peachy pink. I had thought they changed from the yellow directly to the pink. It was quite a while before I noticed the in-between white stage.

Thanks,
Karen

Here's a pic with all three stages:

Karen, Enjoy your lovely Brug as an unknown or NOID. There are too many look alikes to ID a Brug from a photo with any accuracy and there are already way too many misidentified Brugs already.

All Brug blooms undergo color changes and may take a day or two to attain the color they'll exhibit during that flush. The intensity of the pink color may vary from flush to flush.

Well, I keep getting the same three color changes. I've seen many listed that changed from one color to another, but haven't been able to locate one that has an intermediate color as well.

They all seem to go through the color changes. Mostly yellowish before they start to open, sometimes to white, and then to the natural color. I have one pink that I didn't see the white phase on for the first year. I'm sure it happened, but I never caught it. Just one more thing that's fun about Brugmansia.

I concur with both Veronica and MPa's statement about phases of coloring changes. I've a vigorous NOID pink for 5 years, last year was the first time I've noticed its 'white phase' when I kept the plant in a semishade area.
