Another Shooting Star illuminates the Summer sky

Here's another Angel Trumpet cross involving Brugmansia Shooting Star that is currently in bloom.   This is just one of more than a dozen seedlings I have growing from a cross I made between Brugmansia Shooting Star x Masquerade.

The blooms are thicker in texture and as you can see, are holding up quite well in our hot and muggy summer weather.

The blooms are medium in size, in keeping with the size of its parent's blooms.  The plant is very healthy and pest free.  I recall it having a light scent in the early evening hours.

I sure is pretty. I have some masquerade crosses that have not bloomed. My Masquerade plant has struggled all summer. I hate to let it go, but it is just not a happy camper.
