NO!! I am the first poster, but I do grow they our here in the Mojav Desert
and they ARE deadly, I've seen and watched mine and the ONLY thin that seems
to have a chance on them if I don't see'm 1st and kill them are the Great
Horned Tomato worm as I've found signs of them eathing the plant and then
foud the remains of their hiding place for their change, these where on WILD
ONES as they do grow out here that way!

Is that not a Brugmansia? I used to grow them but they do suffer in the
heat and many of mine were heavily infested with spider mites and got
ratty looking. This year, waves of beetles have been attacking my
Daturas and setting them back quite a bit. They were very happy last
year; this one plant spread out about nine feet. I pull the faded
flowers every evening and sometimes get accosted by hawkmoths trying to
get to my handful of perfumy blooms.
