    Glenda wanted to see the Datura when it bloomed. I found two blooming this morning. I need to go out earlier before they start to fade.

    I have seen those flowers around near where I work and had been wondering what they were. They are really unique!

    A single pure white bloom can be so lovely. I grew Moonflower vine once that had that same effect.

    Very pretty Dooley. I forgot to plant some Datura this year. Luckily I found 3 growing in the compost :)

    One church use to have these flowers in a garden. The entire plants were removed years ago.
