      :) Hi Laura and welcome to GC.

      Many years ago (about 1967-ish) I lived in Summerville ... lovely, lovely place .. well, it was back then!

      I think your plant is a wild (naturalised) Datura (Jimson weed).. They grow wild here in Portugal too.

          Thank you Victoria, I have not been to Summerville yet, but I can tell you that Rowesville and the areas around here that I have seen are very lovely! Thank you for the info on the plant also.
