Yep I will delete the other. I wanted to finish the conversation attached to it first :) I love how much I learn on project Noah

Yes I was wondering why there were two, but as this one had the most images, I made the suggestion here. BTW, the other duplicate spotting should be removed. :-) There are a few Daturas in NM. This species seems to be most common and I think matches yours. :-)

So the spiny plant and the leafy plant r the same plant o.0 they looked So different I listed the pic twice.. But I think ur right it's Datura.
