Datura

Datura stramonium

Description:

White large flowers on this one. They are the size of lilies.

Habitat:

This particular bush was set on the side of a property which I pass by regularly while at work.

Notes:

Flowers seem to wither in the heat of the day. Not sure if they did that due to the heat or not..
