I always just called it a "Double Purple Wwhite Datura" in the early years, I became SO much more double-ruffled that it was re-ID'd as a "Black Currant Swirl". The giveaway? The stems were black. I always grow them from seed--so I do not know why it has so evolved??? I will try to post a few different shots of my Datura. From earlier--to later. Hope you will see the differences. I KNOW that over the years I have seen the white look a bit "dirty"--but I guess I would not have taken a photo of it. Maybe the weather, the soil, the heat ot cold have an effect on the colors. Here are a few shots over the years.... 1--taken Aug. 19--2005 2--taken July 7--2006 3--?? 4--August- 2010 Gita |
