What kind of tree has a trumpet flower that hangs up-side-down?

I recently went to Europe (Poland + French Rivera) my g/f and I saw these small trees with trumpet like flowers hanging down from them. The flowers were sweet smelling, white or yellow and were about the length of a bananna.

What kind of tree has a trumpet flower that hangs up-side-down?
I think that they were probably one of the varieties of Brugsmansia - known as Angel's Trumpets.



"Brugmansia is a genus of six species of flowering plants in the family Solanaceae, native to subtropical regions of South America, along the Andes from Colombia to northern Chile, and also in southeastern Brazil. They are known as Angel's Trumpets, sharing that name with the closely related genus Datura. The genus differs from Datura in being perennial and woody (Datura species are herbaceous), and in having pendulous (not erect) flowers.



Brugmansia are large shrubs or small trees, reaching heights of 3–11 m, with tan, slightly rough bark. The leaves are alternate, generally large, 10–30 cm long and 4–18 cm broad, with an entire or coarsely toothed margin, and are covered with fine hairs.



The name Angel's Trumpet refers to the large, very dramatic, pendulous trumpet-shaped flowers, 14–50 cm long and 10–35 cm across at the wide end. They are white, yellow, pink, orange or red, and have a delicate, attractive scent with light, lemony overtones, most noticeable in early evening."

There are different varieties, and one common name is an

Angel's Trumpet.
Reply:That would be brugmansia, or angels's trumpets. Beautiful, aren't they? There are many varieties and colors from white and yellow to lovely pinks and salmons, doubles and singles. I have three, in pots, a white, a yellow with variegated leaves, and a pink one. They can get 10' tall in pots if you let them. Here's some pics in a catalog:
