Pleasantly fragrant, six inch white flowers flushed purple or indigo in the throat. Good for containers.
f you love flowers that look almost unreal, Datura discolor deserves a spot in your collection. This unusual Datura produces huge creamy-white trumpets with a spectacular deep purple-violet throat - a dramatic combination rarely seen in garden flowers.
A fast grower in warm weather, it quickly develops into a branching specimen and can flower while still young. Give it plenty of sun, warmth, well-drained soil and regular feeding during active growth, and it can put on an impressive show throughout the warm season. It also grows beautifully in a large container.
The giant evening-opening trumpets are the main attraction, followed by ornamental spiny seed pods that add even more character. An excellent conversation plant for tropical, subtropical, desert-style and collector gardens.
