Another Angel Trumpet in the Shooting Star Trilogy

Seeing how I have another Angel Trumpet seedling from a cross involving Shooting Star in bloom now, I thought I might as well make this a Shooting Star Trilogy.  Here is a bloom from a Brugmansia Shooting Star x New Orleans Lady seedling.

As the blooms mature the color deepens and the tendrils re-curve as shown in the photo above.  The blooms start out a nice soft pink with long tendrils as you can see below.

This seedling is a monster, towering close to ten feet tall right now.  It has been a regular bloomer this summer and was one of the first seedlings to start blooming following our winter freeze.  I was able to set a few seed pods on it this spring and I recently harvested the pods and planted the seeds.  I know I have other seedlings from this cross growing out so hopefully by fall I'll be able to showcase some of its siblings.  

The photo below was shot looking up at the blooms so that will give you some idea of the height of this seedling.

As far as fragrance goes, it does have a pleasant one.  I do not have the best nose for fragrances, so that is why I do not always note the fragrance when I post info on my seedlings.

This one has great form! The way this one came out makes a lot of sense, going back to the general shape of Rothkirch having it on both sides. Plus, it seems that the Monkey line tends to throw a lot of pink seedlings. It has a lot of potential.. definitely one to watch.
I have a NOL x Shooting Star, seedling that has yet to bloom, so now I can't wait to see what I might get

I would love the bloom position on this one, with it having the Aurea genes. It's a very pretty bloom Fred.
