My datura blossomed last night, its her first flower since november. I brought her inside to over winter her this past year. So this is also an "update" from another thread in here. Just wanted to make a compilation of it as a whole.

I understand I take alot of pictures, but I love this plant, she has an amazing smell all around. Also, the way she reveals herself every time is beautiful.





Two photos from an hour ago when I got home from work.

She started opening more and then I came back to it and she popped open.

Mine stay open until about 10am and they are in full sun.
