DAtura is very poisonous - Sokratés was killed by. For me, the poor natural white Datura is better than Angels Daturas with large and pastel-colored blossoms. The common Datura is minor and only one year of living.

I Took This Today. Just Curious What’s Happening Here?
arthbach 2 years ago
This happens when there is a street lamp in the area. The section of the tree nearest the lamp gets far, far more light than the section in shadow. With deciduous trees experience a certain amount of darkness, they release chemicals that change them from their summer colours, to their autumnal ones, and then they fall from the tree. Light from a street lamp can keep leaves artificially green for longer. They don't experience the darkness required to change colour and fall. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUKkovEQxTI
