Very much look forward to this but wanted to share that we planted our first Datura/Hell’s Bells/Moonflower/Devil’s Trumpet this year. We didn’t expect it to flower in its first year but it did anyway. We started an evening routine of sitting out back, watching as the flowers opened. The first night that many blooms opened all at once you could smell them in the air and right at dusk a giant hummingbird moth came to visit them.
Many thanks Randall How lovely to have datura blooming outside your door and humming bird moths too..! That scent. is knockout. Sending all best from England, Charlotte
