A German Angel Trumpet seedling that loves to bloom

Today's features Angel Trumpet seedling is one I have been growing for a couple of years now.  It is a cross between brugmansia Color Point x Angel's Flight, both from Germany.  The blooms are large and plentiful and the plant is a vigorous grower. It has a very strong resemblance to its mother, Color Point.

colorpointxangelsflight.jpgAs you can see by this picture, it blooms with clusters of large pendant blooms making it an ideal candidate for a "standard".  

Because this seedling has performed so well for me here in Florida, I plan to name and register it soon.Reblog this post [with Zemanta]
