DATURA METELOIDES

DATURA METELOIDES

FAMILY :: SOLANACEAE
A large bush with white 3-6″ long trumpet flowers (late summer to winter, and longer if grown in the greenhouse) and gray leaves. Often confused with D. inoxia, but of a taller (3-4′), more shrub-like growth (rather than sprawling) and smaller, more numerous flowers.

Used by many American Indian tribes in rituals and as an inebriant. Perhaps the most hardy Datura listed here, going dormant in the winter. From Mexico and Southwestern USA.
