Many brug/datura questions. Need help from the experts. Thanks

I have two brugs, both purchased as small starters from

garden centers. 6 months later Sept 16 one is 5 ft tall

with many y junctions and has produced it's firt white

trumpet with pink edging, frankly I don't even know what

variety it is. 1. How do I identify the seed pods? Do they look the same on all brugs. 2. My second brug/or

it may be a datura species has many round green pods with spikes as identified from the forum. It has bloomed once

also. Are all seed pods round with spikes? Also is it

possible that my one brug simply has no seed pods?

Lastly, a gardner in my area has what looks like a large

Datura type hedge across the side of her house which appears to return every year. We are in the same climate

/zone. Does it return and survive the winter from self

seeding from pods which she lets drop to the ground? or

does it have some sort of mature root system which has

hardended to survive the New Jersey winters? How do

I cultivate one like this which returns from the winter

while planted outside in a garden in my zone.? I think I now know how to save mature seed pods and make cuttings

thanks to this forum.
