Angel's Trumpet
August 20, 2009
"Good Morning" view
This is the view from my kitchen window. What a
welcome when I am getting my coffee and heading
to the deck to enjoy the fresh air, birds, flowers, etc.
The crepe myrtle is fading away, but the angel's trumpet
is putting on a show. This morning it had 18 blooms.
The vase attached to the window is great for small arrangements.
The hydrangia and false sunflowers have been in it
for 2 weeks and have dried. In the winter I put pansies in it.
Thank you God for a beautiful creation!

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.
