I'm not sure what kind of flowers these are. When the owner saw me photographing them on the sidewalk, he told me they (the flowers, not the leaves) could be smoked as a hallucinogen, like certain mushrooms, though he also said he had not tried it himself.

It's datura and it's potentially dangerous.
Beautiful photo, The plant is called and angel trumpet. I did not know about the hallucinogenic properties of the flowers. Guess smoking them would be angelic or heavenly!
Thanks again for the weekly photos.

Thank you for the information! And what a perfect name for these flowers. I am very glad you're enjoying the photos. Soon I hope to get back to posting words as well. . . .
Lisa, thanks for the information. I tend to think all hallucinogens are potentially dangerous, so I'm not in danger of trying it, but it's good to have the warning out there.
