Bruce, thanks for this fine floral contribution from you.
By capturing it like a 'trumpet showing its front end', you've made us that determination of its species wasn't an easy job.
Judging the shape of its leaves, did me suppose that you're right about the title.
The official name is: Datura stramonium, known as jimsonweed or devil's snare as well.
Your successful first step in getting 'green thumbs', Buddy, 😜 !

I concur with Mr. C's. comment about what it is - it's also a very good shot Bruce.

Great closeup! Yes, I was taken aback somewhat that you submitted a picture for the "real world" I like the name you gave it, sounds cool. "We must venture deep into the forest to look for the sacred thorn apple so we can complete our potion."

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Lightfoot 1967
