On my way up north (in a few stages) to #Ento24

I suspect I will be the only person in the Fediverse tooting about this, but would love to connect with other #entomology Mastodon-users if I am wrong!

Two Brugmansia cultivars in bloom right now. As we approach winter, these are the showiest part of the toxic garden right now. #toxicology #horticulture #gardening #VeterinaryMedicine #UCDavis #pets
Two different shades of Brugmansia (Angel's Trumpet) loom over a water main. Pendant trumpet-like flowers of white shading to an orangeish-pink at the edges are next to similar flowers all in a bright golden orange. The red of the red & white water main picks up on analogous red of the orangeish-pink flowers.
