Thanks for the ID Dandoucette.So glad you like this flower, Maria.
What a gorgeous flower!
I love this double purple variety of this. I used to grow it in my garden. The species is D. metel. I don't think you have to include the latin name in with the common name, Thornapple is just fine.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datura_mete...
