Brugmansia (Datura)

"Angel's Trumpet"

The showy "Angel's Trumpets", from Central and South America, are subtropical evergreen shrubs in the Solanaceae family with huge pendant trumpet shaped flowers, and are placed in the genus Brugmansia (as opposed to Datura, which includes the perennial "Jimson Weed").

Long cultivated by South American natives, Brugmansias are fast growing plants that need a large space and a large container. Many cultivated species and hybrids grow at high elevations in the Andes, so (like fuchsias) resent warm nighttime temperatures.

For our catalog listings, however, we have chosen cultivars which grow well in warm temperatures. These are among the most colorful and largest flowered plants in our collection, with flowers up to 6" x 15" in white, yellow, orange, apricot and pink that are powerfully fragrant beginning at dusk and cover the plant in cycles throughout the year.

Outdoors, frost will damage their leaves, but the plants will recover from 25F. and regrow quickly. Hard pruning to control size and shape is recommended and will bring a flush of new growth and heavy bloom on well-fertilized plants. Shipped in 2.75 inch pots.

To be able to list cultivars alphabetically, we have not listed the species parentage in the plant names. These are listed in the description, if known. The new designation "cubensis" refers to a combination of all three species, B. aurea, B. suaveolens, and B. versicolor, in the cultivar's breeding.
