These reseed themselves every year.

Hi Mike! Did you plant these, or did they just arrive? I was intrigued by an interesting seedling and left it to mature...and guess what?
there are a lot of folk into brugmansia's.( the cousin of these, I think) they truly are conversation pieces. When I did some research into the "thorn apple" I found it is datura...the seeds are poisonous and the sap isn't good for you either. it is a very sturdy almost pretty plant, much like castor bean, very architectural and ornamental but should be handled with care.
