Hey, people who dig things Green... Check this out this strange and wonderful documentary that made it's way onto my netflix list. This guy is so inspiring - a self taught totally obsessed gardener/artist.
Also, I will send $5 cold hard cash to the first person who can name this bizarro plant that lives on our block.
I believe that's called Angel's Trumpet though it usually grows in south america.
ReplyDeleteDo the flowers smell really good?
I think they're also related to Datura which I grow because the flowers are so beautiful and smell so sweet but they are poisonous. I think that both plants have been used for their hallucinogenic effects but can be fatal if too much is ingested....

ReplyDeleteI will double check with the neighbor, but looking it up myself - it looks right and I will be sending you that fat five spot along with something I have been saving for you:) address please!?
Darn, I missed the opportunity for 5 bucks !! We planted an Angel's trumpet for Chloe, and a Magnolia tree for Blake, (his placenta in the hole for for good measure). Both tree's are not doing so well, but for a while the flowers of the angels trumpet were so prolific & smelled so lovely. The kids on the other hand, growing like weeds !!
