Herb Description
Datura 'Purple Ballerina' , also known as "angel's trumpet" is a marvelously fragrant flowering herb with upward-facing blooms that resemble a dancer's costume. These compact plants are perfect for containers or as a scene-stealer in the garden. Flowers open in the evening and close again in the morning. Beginning in early summer and continuing until the fall weather sets in, the plant is covered with magnificent blooms, so fragrant that a single plant perfumes the garden! Large, very attractive fruits follow the blooms and should be cut for splendid accents to fresh and dried arrangements.
A beautiful aromatic addition to any night garden, this nocturnal beauty is a must have for its showy blooms!
*All parts of these flowering annuals are poisonous, including seeds. Exercise extreme caution around children and pets.*
