Angel&#8217;s Trumpet? Seriously? I took a look and saw that it was but didn&#8217;t mention to her its hallucinogenic properties, which  can be quite dangerous if you don&#8217;t know what you&#8217;re doing, and apparently often times even if you do. Personally, I&#8217;m not one who would be interested in experimenting but thought getting some photos  would be nice.<\/p>\n<p>One wonders why certain plants do what they do.<\/p>\n<p>It was early evening and  fascinating to watch this one pod opening even as we stood there. When I first noticed it the glistening green new flower had only begun to emerge, and within a few seconds was as you see above. I called over my mother-in-law to see and she was fascinated, having never observed this.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/idyllopuspress\/6256875970\/\" title=\"Angel's Trumpet by idyllopus, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm7.static.flickr.com\/6111\/6256875970_4a3bf264b7_z.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" alt=\"Angel's Trumpet\"><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/bighugelabs.com\/onblack.php?id=6256875970&#038;bg=white&#038;size=large\">View On White<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/idyllopuspress\/6256869514\/\" title=\"Angel's Trumpet Emerging from Pod by idyllopus, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm7.static.flickr.com\/6232\/6256869514_1bb5d22df7_z.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" alt=\"Angel's Trumpet Emerging from Pod\"><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/bighugelabs.com\/onblack.php?id=6256869514&#038;bg=white&#038;size=large\">View On White<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/idyllopuspress.com\/meanwhile\/13962\/two-views-of-angels-trumpet-flowers\/\">More views of the flowers.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Angel&#8217;s Trumpet pod opening at night fall View On White We were visiting my mother-in-law for her birthday on Sunday, and she remarked to me that her angel&#8217;s trumpet, a new plant (as of this summer), had been beautiful the week before but the flowers were now dying off.
