Great set, Jim and Ellen says that we saw some similar near Williamsburg, but I don't remember them, so they must not have been in full bloom like those.

Thanks Swampy. I don't knew if they grow this big in the wild. They are about a foot long.

I have seen these before in white, but never with so many trumpets together! Excellent captures Jim.

The photos are great! This is a Brugmansia - an "Angel's Trumpet". A tropical plant now found mostly in gardens. It is in the nightshade family and is the original source of atropine and related medications. It can be toxic if ingested, and interestingly, I heard from a partera (midwife) in Belize that one folk use of this plant there is that if children have a problem that is bothering them, they put one of these flowers under their pillow at night and the solution to their problem will come to them in a dream.
