Datura inoxia -- White bell flower with spiny seed pod IDENTIFIED -- warnings for use Hello fellow flower lovers! Here are some photos of a fabulous scrambling plant that decided to propogate itself -- it grew this big just this summer from seed that fell from a pot on the deck last fall and overwintered in the soil. I took these pics today. I am going to collect the seed when the pods have matured, but would love to know what it is. Thanks, Kar El :)
Thanks so much -- here's the link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datura_inoxia I have no children or pets, but people do visit, so I will warn them. Funny, it says the plant gives off a noxious smell when the leaves are crushed -- the scent is actually a nutty one and I have tons of allergies and have had no adverse affects from handling it. It's a beautiful plant, and still gorgeous despite some cold nights -- but I will warn anyone of the risks if I share seeds. Kar El :)
