A jewel of an Angel Trumpet

Today's featured Angel Trumpet seedling is a carry over from 2008 that I plan to name and register this fall.  It is the result of a J.T. Session's brugmansia cross involving Goldfinch x Peanut.

goldfinchxpeanut-2.jpgThe blooms are petite and compact, like its father, Peanut.  I remember the blooms staying a light pink last winter, and then once warm weather moved in they became much darker.  Check back in late November for the official introduction of this beauty.
