ANGEL’S TRUMPET 
2630—Datura Meteloides. A very striking 
border plant growing 21% 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—and can be used to 
fill in bare sunny spots. Just a few plants scat- 
tered through a sunny border will be very 
effective. We have seen Angel’s Trumpet 
planted in a corner by entrance steps with red 
salvia in front of it. Such spots have been most 
attractive all summer. 214 ft.

tiful as an edging for borders and in the rock 
garden. Like pansies, seed is sown in July for 
bloom the following spring. Colors are pink, 
rosy red and white. 6 in.

shiny green foliage all through the summer. 
Will thrive in partially shaded spots. 14 in.

has become “fashionable’’ again because it 
lends itself so well to flower arrangements.

the stems that there is little room for leaves. 
Can be treated as an everlasting like Straw- 
flowers. Seed should be started early indoors.

green leaves and white with light green. Not 
difficult to grow if seed is scattered on top of
