Both of these plants are in the same plant family, the same one that contains morning glorys as well. It is considered an annual and chances are after creating a 4' to 8' bush it will be touched by the cold and have to be cut back if not trimmed severely. Here in Texas where ours are grown in the ground we just let them die off to the degree they have been affected and wait for new growth before we actually cut back. Very hardy and huge for an annual in this plant family!! Roots by

cuttings extremely well. I have done it in dirt and water. I have all colors available and though they are considered poisonous, none of my animals were ever drawn to them as a plant. From dogs, cats, racoon pet and numerous horses who grazed my flower garden area.
oh and by the way the purple angel trumpet does not have the prickley seed pods as do the other colors..the purple have the same type seed pod only it is smooth. I have about 50 seed pods from last year..
I would love to have some seeds also. I had Datura a few years ago, they come up later than most of my perennials, they also have "tubers"? Is that an accurate call?Anyway big sweet potato looking roots. I loved them, this one is gorgeous and i havent seen one like it. Mine didnt come up the last few years,I guess I must have gotten all the roots out. Dont know.. Put me on your list? Please?
Sharron W. , Marge C. and Bernice they come in yellow, white and purple. if I can find my bucket of seeds I will have you e-mail me your address and will send you some seeds
WOW Carol that would be AWESOME! Probably too late in the summer for me to grow them this year though...What is the germination to flowering time...do you have a general idea? It doesn't really matter cause if you send me seeds and I can't get them this year I definately will be planting them next spring....I'm working on a plan for a greenhouse Box seed starting frame that should give me a heads up on next year...LOL
Carol....have you found your bucket of seeds? I don't want to pester you ;) I also hope your computer is fixed :) I absolutely hate it when that happens!
Marg now my computer is fried..Had a bad thunder storm and lightning hit and fried my pc. and yes I did find all my seeds...send address and I will mail you some seeds...I have single and double white and yellow and purple..I also have texas star seeds if anyone is interested.
