Angel trumpets are one of the most wonderful ornamentals for a tropical garden. These beauties are reliable in Zones 8-10, freezing down and returning in spring from a strong, buried root system. The plants grow very quicky, reaching up to 15-20 feet per summer in some varieties. But what is really dramatic about angel trumpets is the synchronous bloom at approximately 3-5 week intervals. The photo of Versicolor Pink Brugmansia above shows the first part of the flower show. As the buds elongate, they turn from pale yellow to a sweet pink, opening fully and releasing their fragrance at night. A large plant may have over 100 blooms with each flush and the flowers last approximately a week. What a show! The number of varieties is ever increasing, varying in height, shape, color and bloom cycle. Check back as we'll be adding varieties as the collection grows.

Our varieties are each $19.99 plus shipping in a 3 gallon size (that's a BIG plant to start you off with!). The beauty on the left is Cypress Gardens in full bloom.

Growing Angel Trumpets Angel trumpets like light shade or protection from the west sun. They are very heavy feeders, so pile on compost and a balanced, slow release fertilizer. Regular water is also a must. Spacing between bloom cycles is set by the plant's individual biology (usually about a 3-6 week cycle between bloom shows) and the care it receives. An unwatered or poorly fertilized plant will bloom less often. So add compost, fertilizer and water for the biggest and most frequent bloom shows June to frost! In fall just before the first hard frost, cut off the plant at about 6 inches and mulch heavily (we really mean this). In spring, pull back the mulch, top with a layer of compost and add fertilizer. Your angel trumpet will start to grow very rapidly and will be bigger than ever each year.
