Soil should be porous and aerated to avoid harmful fungi in root area.Distinctive because of upright flowers and spiney fruit capsules (Thorn Apple). When ripe capsules will open and can produce
100's of seeds. An extremely interesting property of Datura is being able to change size of plant, size of leaf and size of flowers depending on location. When grown in a half - shady damp location, Datura can develope into a bush about 3 ft. tall; but when grown in a very dry location it will only grow into a thin little plant with little leaves and little flowers.
