Sibling rivalry amongst Angel Trumpets

Yesterday I posted photos from another Angel Trumpet seedling from this same cross involving brugmansia (Tiara x Susanne) x Earth Angel.  Had I known this one was in bloom at the same time, I would have posted these pictures in the same post.   Anyways, here is the 3rd Angel Trumpet seedling I've had bloom from Brenda Delph's cross of brugmansia (Tiara x Susanne) x Earth Angel.

I spotted it last night while I was out making my rounds. I'm forever amazed as to how I can miss some of these beautiful seedlings during the day, yet at night they jump out at me.  I think it is because when you have thousands of plants growing together in close proximity to each other, everything blends together.  At night your field of vision is concentrated on a smaller area making it easier to spot these Angel Trumpet jewels.

This seedling is lighter in color than the previous one, but it is equally as impressive.  The blooms have a bit more flounce to them as well.  It will definitely be in my watch zone this spring to see how it evolves.
