The listing, Pink Datura 30 seeds has ended.

Datura are woody-stalked, leafy annuals and short-lived perennials which can reach up to 2 meters in height. The leaves are alternate, 10–20 cm long and 5–18 cm broad, with a lobed or toothed margin. trumpet-shaped flowers, 5–20 cm long and 4–12 cm broad at the mouth; colour pink, . The fruit is a spiny capsule 4–10 cm long and 2–6 cm broad, splitting open when ripe to release the numerous seeds. The seeds disperse freely over pastures, fields and even wasteland locations.

Its super poisonous!!

Datura belongs to the classic "witches' weeds," along with deadly nightshade, henbane, and mandrake. Most parts of the plants contain toxic hallucinogens, and Datura has a long history of use for causing delirious states and death. It was well known as an essential ingredient of love potions and witches' brews.

Questions & Comments

I have these in white and pink and didn't know about being poisonous. Thanks for the info. For bidders: These are beautiful and you can groom them to look like little trees.

I know there are about 15 of different kinds, not sure if these are the ones that look like trees. I wouldent worry too much about the poisonousness, things that are poisonous usually taste bad enough that they are hard to eat.

I didn't know you could grow them with the seeds. I just pull off a start and put it in a pot, so this is good to know. I have mine next to a walk way and I trim it so it goes over and looks so pretty with the "bells" hanging down. What is so nice about these is that you can have them fill a large area or trim them and use them in a small area.

Mine are just tiny sproutling at this point, but I could send you seeds.

I love these. Maybe you could answer a question for me. Do you know the name of the bamboo that cane poles are made of? I have access to a nice lot of this plant but I don't know what to call it. I know some bamboo gets really big around, does this come with the age of the plant? Hope you know. If not that's ok. And are all variations of bamboo agressive?

Thanks, and I'm sorry I have no idea, we can't really grow too much bambo in the north. good luck though.
