Sometimes called Angels' Trumpets,
this should have flowered for me in 2002, but has taken until
now to produce its flower, which will be the last for a while
now. It comes from N. Chile and ideally likes a minimum of
45ºC, whereas it only gets protected by an unheated greenhouse
and behaves as a deciduous shrub for me which is presumably
why the flowers are so delayed each year. (Solanaceae family)
