Pretty in Pink...

I'm starting to see a bunch of new Angel Trumpet seedlings with double/triple blooms.  Here's one that has a nice soft pink color to it like its mother.  It is the result of a cross between brugmansia Peace x Mon Amour de Muriel.

I let them sit and by the second or third set of blooms they had turned into a real beauty.
