Meanie,
Yes, it's about 25 feet / 7.6 meters tall. The trunk is very thick also...maybe 10+ inches/ 25+cm in diameter.
We're having the coolest spring ever recorded in many California cities this year...Angel's Trumpets love cooler temps...and they bloom really well in this cooler weather. We haven't had temps this spring more than 95 degrees F / 35 degrees C....this is very unusual for inland San Diego.

I do hope you get some hot weather you deserve!
Today, it was 80 degrees F/ 27 degrees C. still a little below normal...however, it feels good. The rest of the week it's finally going to be warm maybe up to 88 degrees F. / 31 degrees C. by Tuesday or Wednesday.

Thanks! I think when Angel's Trumps get old...they tend to be naturally shaped like an umbrella.

Yes, they're native to the highland tropics...they tolerate cool temps but not cold or frost without major damage or death.

wow! Is that trained to single trunk? I might try that..the multitrunk thing can be a mess..but i thought the trunks were short lived..so let them sucker.

No the trunks are not short-lived. After they bloom they should be cut back a bit.
