Speckled Purple Datura

Does anyone out in DaturaLand know which purple ends up looking speckled, or mottled in color as opposed to solid? I could swear I saw a pic in a thread, was it MaVie's?
Thanks!
Jackie

Jackie, were u referring to this http://davesgarden.com/forums/fp.php?pid=667525 ? i do not know who else have it, after i gave some people seeds two yrs ago. it was a freak of nature that happened in my yard 3 yrs ago. so far, i have not seen anyone post a photo of seeds i shared. i only have a few seeds left. i will be planting some this year hopefully. perhaps i can share some seed with u at the end of the year????????

i saw some being sold on ebay

Hiya MaVie, missed your posts, I hope you are well!
Yes, I believe that is the one, so unique and so pretty.
I would be very happy and honored, if things work out, to receive some of your seeds.
I just love the mottling along the throat, very beautiful.

Thanks, Marie. I will have to scope it out. :)

I just planted some Raseberry Swirl I sure hope they come up and look like that.


Doris

sorry to respond so late Jackie. i have not been too well of late.

Doris, raspberry or discolor datura are one and the same, but NOT same as speckled datura.

from what little i know raspberry or discolor datura has white almost flourescent shine on the petals with purple marking around the inner part of the corolla. whereas speckled datura has dark purple marking along the yellowish/white petals.

MaVie - Good to "see you", don't you apologize, I know there have been trials & tribulations!
That's what I was thinking, they were not the same because the speckled looks so beautiful and unique, like a Monet painting.
Thank you, MaVie.

u're welcome Jackie, and thanks for understanding.

Oh, MaVie, I just love it.
I have to say that it is my favorite.

me too, that is breathtaking.

Mavie, beautiful pictures, I had this grow last year, a little odd, not the normal purple and white that I am used to.
