Description
Beautiful angel trumpet flower. Brugmansia are native to tropical regions of South America, along the Andes from Venezuela to northern Chile, and also in south-eastern Brazil. They are grown as ornamental container plants world-wide, and have become naturalized in isolated tropical areas around the globe, including within North America, Africa, Australia, and Asia. Most Brugmansia are fragrant in the evenings to attract pollinating moths. The scent is heavenly! This is my first attempt at growing these beautiful flowers and so far I am very pleased with the results! My challenge is creating a tropical environment in a desert setting. These blossoms are about 8-9" in length. This is a double blossom variety, but I believe the double blossoms aren't produced until the plant is fully mature.
