If it's Datura, and if you were considering trying it, don't.

You better not grow tomatoes, potatoes or eggplant either because they are all
in the same family and all have equally poisonous leaves.

Really. I get so tired of people warning that you shouldn't grow this

I think animaux was probably being sarcastic...since choosing to grow
only non-poisonous plants eliminates some of the most common plants
people WANT to grow. Until i read a gardening book i had no idea so
many common plants have poison dangers.

Although the Datura may have a reputation for hallucingenics while no
drug addicts are stealing leaves off your tomato plants to get their
fix.
