Brugmansias page one

Our Brugmansias always get a lot of attention on our open days, there are quite often queues to take pictures. The tallest are about two and a half metres, with up to fifty blooms at one time. We find they are very thirsty plants, in the summer I don't think you could over water them, so much so that we stand their pots in shallow containers full of water, and keep them topped up.


Brugmansia Sanguinea

The Brugmansia Sanguinea has smaller blooms, and they do tend to hide amongst the foliage, but it is a beautiful flower.

We will be adding two more different brugs to our collection this year, Knightii, a double white, and a variegated leaf, single cream.

The pictures below show a Brugmansia flower starting to open

 

Although the first picture shows what looks like a yellow flower opening, it is in fact a white.
