First Angel Trumpet Blooms

My Aunt Joyce surprised me with a truckload of newly propagated Angel Trumpet trees.  She had them unloaded and lined up in my front yard before I knew what was going on.  I was all the more grateful for these passed down treasures from her collection of pink and yellow trumpets.  

For the time being, they're lined along my back porch in full sun and doing well.  The first pink blooms appeared a few days ago...


I love the way the long blooms dangle from the branches and sway in the breeze.  I'm looking forward to seeing these beauties grow into mature trees.
