Re: Propagating Brugmansia

Skyler
personally I have never had any luck with these plants in the ground. I grow them in "pots" and they do very well for me. I have 3 at this time that are over 8 ft tall "in pots" In the fall I always move them to my basement, take several cuttings and just put them in pots of soil and keep them damp. sometime around Feb. I can began to see green leaves start. I have a pretty good success rate on my cuttings. I always have bunches to share with friends. I have a pink one that has really out done itself this year. About 3 weeks ago I counted 26 blooms, and right now it has about that many. Donna in NE Mississippi

Marge,
Yes, we are zone 8b here in the valley near the river - 60 ft above sea
level - and haven't had a hard winter in several years.
