Answers:
Angel trumpets are a beautiful blooming plant but it has become illegal to sell them in certain municipalities in the state of Florida. They have toxic properties, and have gotten the reputation as a hallucinogenic when smoked, which sometimes lead to death of the smoker. it is a shame that such a beautiful plant had be banned because of idiots. check your local laws to see if they are even allowed in your area. i would hate for you to be growing a "controlled substance".
I have one and no one has ever told me it was rare.
I have several of those. They're fast growing, attractive, and they flower abundantly. They attract a certain type of moth, which is a show in itself. I recommend them, and any garden center should have some.
Yea..they are illegal to grow in some places, due to dumb people using them as a drug. Then they die. Way to go for them. Anyways they were grandfathered in if you had them growing on your property before a certain date. But no never seen them close before my neighbors has them in his yard. Beautiful flowers.
