Default Where can I find "datura" which was mentioned above?

I have both Brugmansia & Daturas. The flower on the Dantura grows
up...pointing to the sky. The flower on the Brugmansia {or angel trumpets}
grows down. Both are easy to grow and are beautiful!!! The fragrance is
stronger in the evening and a bloom will only last about a day in heat. But
in the fall and spring they will hang for ever it seems. I bought mine white
Dantura at the The Antique Rose Emporium at

My double purple and & white Dantra plus my yellow, and my peach Brugmansia
I got at Maas Nursery
http://www.maasnursery.com/bamboo.htm
Both do mail orders and have a pretty good selection. I have these planted
in the shade and sun...and the one in the sun does great as long as I feed
and water it regularly. I think they are a great addition to any garden.
Remember that the Dantras are VERY Poinus!! So if you have small children or
animals who chew you may want to create its own little area. I have done
this on the side of my house due to the fact that I have Great Danes and the
female will eat a house in a matter of minutes!ha! On this side I have my
Castro bean plants also. I must say it is my favorite part of the yard...and
it is our entrance for our friends to enjoy. I also have a TON of seed and
would be willing to trade if anyone wants...
Hope this helped...

I read somebody mention datura, and it caught my eye. I did a google
search on it, and saw a few pictures, read a little info on the plant,
and now I really am interested.....

The only thing was......out of every single page I scrolled though, not
one of them had any info on ordering the plant........but almost
everyone of them had some kind of info on how to get high on them.

I am not looking for a "quick fix."

I just want an easy to maintain/grow flower to put in my backyard.
Nothing too fancy.......just something to impress my momma.

If anybody could help me find some, it would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks tons.
