I am a grower and collector of Datura and its seeds. This is a rather unusual one with purple markings through the center and 5- 6 inch flowers. This is my first year growing this variety and still learning its habit due to its origin. The flower has a sweet smell. It is an annual plant that originally came from Mexico. In its natural habitat Datura ceratocaula grows in shallow water or in a swamps. The seeds were pretty easy to germinate and seem to love heat and sun. I suppose its not really a Thorn-apple because the seed pods are thorn-less. 😁
