My first purple/white

Fountain, FL(Zone 8a)

Got my first datura last year...it was already in a pot. Since then I have traded and started other seeds. This is the only one so far that has bloomed this year. I love it!! but then purple is my favorite color.

:-)))) It was starting to open when Arlene was lurking out there in the gulf. Not knowing if we would get hit I naturally brought it inside. Had 2 blooms and I *think* 8-10 buds which all dropped off after it went back outside. WAAAAHHHH Guess it took exception to heat outside,AC and back to heat outside! Just now seeing more buds comming. I do have 1 seedpod that looks a bit strange...sorta like a "double" pod....main pod with a bump on it. Strange
