A dear friend sent me two plants this
year after I was unable to obtain some.
These are very special plants and I just
love their variegation!
Yes, I have plenty of pollen to use on
our second attempt to cross a Brugmansia
and a Datura.
Bloom #2
8/3/2021
The first two blooms were crossed with B.
Shorty's pollen and the third bloom with B.
Frosty Pink.
Then this evening when our B. Sorro opened I was
able to cross it with D. MM pollen.
This bloom I crossed with B. Frosty pink. I also
removed the anther and once it's open so no pollen
will touch the stigma.
Another bloom was found today 2/09/2021 and I
just allowed it to do it's thing but I removed the
anthers so we will see if it self pollenates. No
pollen unless the bees find other pollen.
The smaller second plant is starting to bloom!

In my attempts to save both plants I dug them up and
put then in pots yesterday. They still look great this
am.
