Growing Brugmansia for the soul

Well, what beautiful and unusual plants you can sometimes see! For example, the amazingly beautiful Brugmansia tree. When you see it, you will never think that this beauty is a relative of the common dope. This is a tree of a tropical climate, and therefore Growing Brugmansia outdoors in regions with a temperate climate and higher in longitude is impossible.

Brugmansia is so unusual that people call it differently - devil's tree or angel's trumpet. This contradiction in the name has its basis. Huge white drooping flowers look like a musical instrument - a trumpet. The flowers reach a length of 30 centimeters and can be of different colors - from snow-white to dark red. Breeders have developed many varieties of this tree, and the flowers can be ordinary funnel-shaped, semi-double, double, two-tiered, with different colors of the tier. The amazing beauty of the flowers gave Brugmansia the name "Angel's Trumpet". Brugmansia received the name "Devil's Tree" because of its extreme toxicity.

This beautiful, unusual plant requires a lot of space, and although it grows up to two meters in height, it is unlikely to survive in a room in an ordinary apartment. But if Brugmansia is grown in a winter garden, on a large glassed-in loggia, where the temperature does not drop below -5 degrees, then you can enjoy its unusual beauty.

For abundant flowering, this wonderful tree needs a lot of sun, light and warmth. If the plant grows in the shade, it will produce few flowers, putting all its energy into green leaves.This plant loves water and nutrients, and therefore needs to be watered and fed regularly. If the decision to grow has been made, then you should take into account that an adult plant requires a large tub, and a device is also provided with which the tub with Brugmansia can be rolled out into the street.

Brugmansia can be “cut” - it will easily endure such a procedure, turning into a standard tree of a well-groomed spherical shape.

Good luck!
