Looking back over this, I realize I never mentioned white Brugmansias. When mine finally bloomed, I was repulsed by their odor. I didn't even dig up any to bring when we moved.

And, not to be picky for its' own sake, a distasteful exercise in any context, but because I think you'll be interested to know how to best use binomials, species names aren't capitalized. To avoid confusion in a discussion where the genus is already established, putting its' first letter in front of a species, like B. arborea, is the usual convention. Then everyone can instantly recognize that it's a species name. Capitalizing a species could lead to confusion about whether it's being used as a species of the genus under discussion, or if discussion of a new genus has arisen.
