Jack, I missed getting an image of the first bloom, my camera was visiting with hubby at a wedding but I did get an image of the second bloom today for you. It has lots of nice mottling up the outside as you can see....

    That's a nice one. I wish that I'd have been able to ID my blooms but messing up tags is par for the course for me. lol

    Great Pic Ruth Ann!! It will be interesting to see if all of the flowers look the same... Was this one the same as the first?

    Thanks, it was Jack who did the work, I only grew out the seeds. :)
    Kylie, it is pretty much the same, all flowers on each plant should look alike, the differences will be between different 152-3 plants. ( seeds from the same pod) as there would be in Brug seeds from the same pod too. I have one other growing from this cross ( 152-3) but it doesn't get as much sun and has become overshadowed ( literally)by my Exotica Brug. I am hoping to see one bloom from it before the season ends, for comparison purposes.

    Blicon....any chance you are still growing these BOC? I JUST found out about them 15 mins. ago...while begging on the forums for other datura colors. I never heard of them,till just now! you developed them???? Do you still grow them,or at least sell the seeds? I am in south Fla. and i am so bored wit hthe double purple/white one. I have a few double yellows, but thats it. I am trying to get some datura seeds from Canada, of a yellow with the purple streaks and lips...maybe it is this BOC. I dont know.

    But they refuse to sell to anyone in Fla. and 5 other states....for some unknown reason. So...IF you get this notice, that I left a note here, i cant find your email address anywhere here, so i am begging in public. any shot at a few seeds?

    thank you, Stan
