Angel's Trumpet
I love the Angel's Trumpet because it blooms at dusk and has
a wonderful fragrance. This is the fourth year the same plant has
returned. It has over 50 blooms and buds. I deadhead at least
10-15 blooms every morning. If the blooms are left on the plant,
it will drop the bloom and develop a large round prickly
seed pod. On a cloudy day, the blooms will last until
noon. I also have the climbing one called Moonflower. It
is not blooming yet. I can't wait because it is
climbing on my deck post. The large moths are attracted
to the blooms at night.
