A true showstopper, Datura metel - also known as Horn-of-Plenty - boasts huge, double trumpet-shaped flowers that spiral outward like a horn, often in a unique mottled purple shade. These blooms are not only spectacular in appearance but also richly fragrant, filling the air from spring through fall.
Growing to 2 3 feet in containers, this fast-growing plant blooms repeatedly in spring, summer, and fall, adding a bold, tropical flair to gardens and patios. It has a long history of medicinal uses (though all parts are toxic if ingested, so admire with care).
With its exotic flowers, intoxicating scent, and lush foliage, Datura metel brings a mystical, surreal beauty to your garden like no other.
