Angels Trumpets make striking flower arrangements. 
ANGEL’S TRUMPET 
2630—Datura Meteloides. This old favorite 
is becoming popular again because it is so 
striking in modern flower arrangements. A 
very showy border plant growing 2% to 3 ft. 
high and spreading to 2 or more feet. Foliage is 
a soft gray green. Creamy white trumpets 8 
to 10 inches long develop attractive large 
round prickly seed pods. This is the annual 
form—not the leggy, woody perennial which is 
usually grown in tubs and has to be wintered 
over indoors.

Jubilee Gem Bachelor Buttons provide the much 
needed blue in summer gardens. 

“In the arrangement class, my datura, showing 
flowers in all stages of development, caused many 
questions. The attendant was so bothered by fre- 
quent, ‘What is that flower?’ that he wrote, ‘This ts 
an Angel's Trumpet,’ on a card beside it. It cer- 
tainly is a striking plant, with its long white 
blossoms and attractive seed pods.” 
Mrs. Joe Dabes, Groton, N. Y., Sept. 4, 1947
