Meet the David & Goliath of Angel Trumpets
Brugmansia come in all shapes and sizes and here's a good example of extremes in size. The larger pink Angel Trumpet is an Ecuador Pink x Rothkirch seedling. The mini-white below it is from a cross involving Naughty Nick x Cleopatra.
The Naughty Nick x Cleopatra seedling is one I first featured in my garden blog back in December of 2009. The petite blooms are only a couple of inches across and typically have at least three skirts. While the blooms are small, the plant is a giant. I have no plans to register it, but will keep it in my hybridizing program in hopes of developing small plants with small blooms.

I Love them both!
