Default Brugmansia flowers

You can do cuttings any time they are ingrowth, about 3-4" long with half a
leaf at the top. they will come into flower during summer with no extra help
from you!
Repotting is best done in spring.


Thanks :-)

I often bring my potted one in around late October with a flush of buds on
which will come into flower through November, scent is wonderful inside but
the location is so dark that they normally go dormant until the spring.
Outside they are often severely frost damaged and take until July to start
flowering.


Mine takes till July even overwintering in the greenhouse!
