A note on usage: some of the common names apply to specific species; for instance, Sacred Datura is usually specific to D. wrightii. I will mostly use common names interchangeably, as desired, to fit the vibe. Thus, the title of this site, Sacred Datura, is used as a general label, referring to all species. When I want to refer to a specific species I will use the scientific nomenclature.
