#brugmansia

1 post1 participant0 posts today

Our #Brugmansia developed slowly this summer - it didn't grow flower buds before October and, as the weather grew colder, none of the buds opened, before the plant shed its leaves. Wedndays evening, just before the first frost I took the plant inside for overwintering. The branches with the flower buds went into a flower vase in my study - I didn't expect much but this morning the sweet smell of the flowers filled the room. #bloomscrolling #winter

Also appearing- Brazilian White Brugmansia, the Angel’s Trumpet herself! This tree produces its expansive flowering branches at the top only after it has established several tiers of short, leafy branches below.

The precisely tiered look of this plant, and the ridiculous scale of the flowers when it is still small reminds me of the way trees were stylized in the Unicorn Tapestries.

(Note: This is a Datura relative, and the same caveats apply.)

The Angel's Trumpet or Brugmansia is a tropical, exotic shrub that I put outside in the spring and bring inside in the winter. The large, pendulous shaped flowers are most fragrant in the evening when they attract the pollinating moths. When the shrub is in full bloom the display is outstanding.

The yellow Angel's Trumpet or is a exotic shrub that I put outside in the spring and bring inside in the winter. The buds are intriguing with their long points and the large, pendulous shaped flowers are most fragrant in the evening when they attract the pollinating moths.

I wanted a tropical garden. In Jan 2019, My husband built the frame for me. The second photo is Jan 2021. The hanging flower is a Brugmansia. I now have an irrigation system cos I got sick of holding a hose 😬 Its pretty weed free, which is good, because I’m I’m not going in there as I’m terrified of big spiders. And In Qld everything wants to kill you 😂🐍🕷️ #subtropicalqld #southeastqld #subtropicalgardening #gardening #brugmansia #flowers
