Hi love your channel .we have 2 dogs and you said I have to be carefully is it better to fence it off .I am also lucky to have room to have a cactus area which will be fenced off

I like the bubble wrap, for insulation in your greenhouse. Thanks for info, also.

[@GrowParadise]

No worries, I have a tutorial on how to install bubble wrap on my channel 👍

Interesting!! I have quiet a few cuttings to plant and thought I shall go for much bigger pot. Would it cause any issues potting in say 3 ltr pot directly?

[@craigmitchell7917]

Great video! I have started to take cuttings from the small side shoots of the mother plant. Do this early spring with some bottom heat in compost. Make a really straight stemmed plant

[@GrowParadise]

Great tip, thanks for sharing 👍

[@valjalava1951]

Greta video does the cutting have to be kept in a sunny locations

[@terrywilliams9115]

I love your potting soil tray. where did you get yours?

[@mo_bra3340]

Thank you for all the tips. :-) I've started some cuttings... almost a month ago now. I cut them in early January (I live in zone 9), when we were having a bit more rain, and temps were not quite as low. I originally set them in my north facing windowsill, but after a couple weeks, decided to move them out onto my south-facing front porch, since we were having some sunny days in between the winter weather. Now, in February, we REALLY seem to be having winter weather! Not as much rain, but the temps have dropped down into the high 30s/low 40s (F). I've left the cuttings out, but I'm wondering if you think I should bring them back in, until the warmer evening temps return? The cuttings till look fairly healthy. The few leaves on each are still green and the stems look alright. They all have those little white-ish bumps all over the stems, which I believe will become the roots at some point (right?), but for now, they are rootless. :-/ My other question is: have you ever just tried sticking your cuttings into some fresh potted soil and keeping it moist until they start to root by themselves (i.e. cutting out the part where you soak them for awhile in just water)? I was thinking I might try that to help keep the cuttings warmer and/or for better rooting..? Anyway, I'd appreciate any of your thoughts on these questions... if/when you have a moment to share! :-) Cheers!

Great vid, have you tried growing them from seed? The pollen transfer can be a bit tricky but the results are really worth it. We grow ours in a 60/40 mix of peat free and loam. It really helps to stop them from drying out in winter.

[@GrowParadise]

I've grow Sanguinea from seed, I never get seedpods on my own plants though. Maybe I will try pollination the year 😁🤞

Always enjoy your videos and love brugs so this was perfect. I also watched a previous video of yours on taking props, though I have not done that with mine yet. I have three, yellow, orange and white, all freebies from a social-media friend I exchange plants with. However they are in too small pots I think: they didn't grow big or have many blooms last year and I struggle with the feeding/watering (they are the hungriest and thirstiest plants I know and I am a bit of a serial under-waterer). I overwintered like you did pretty much, kept at a min of 5c, with few leaves, but I watered them more and gave more light than you did so I hope they are ok. This year I am going to plant them out into the ground with a view to digging up in autumn and returning to pots, but I will take cuttings following your advice.

[@GrowParadise]

They grow INCREDIBLY fast when you plant them out, let me know how it goes 😁👍

[@irismoles9369]

Thanks I must try them this year

[@GrowParadise]

Thanks Iris 👍😁

Hi, thanks for the video. I forgot to give my potted Brugmansia any water over winter. Most of them died, of course, but they do have basal shoots coming from them. Can i grow plants from those shoots?

[@DougFL66]

Do you just plant one clipping you propagate?? a neighbor cut down their angel trumpet or cut it back while I went over and clipped a bunch of cuttings and propagated them. I have like 10 when I plant them are they each a separate plant or can I put a few of the clippings in one area in my yard together or should they be one plant alone

[@susannaylor451]

Hi, i potted my cutting brugmansia in big tub outdoors couple of weeks ago, covered with glass dome for protection against winds and heavy rain. But the leaves have started turning pale and yellowish in colour. Can you advise what I'm doing wrong as I've never grown this plant before. Thanks 😊

[@HoneyBee-qz8ig]

Hi. My tree grow lot n big but no flowers what did I do ? Or what should I do ?

[@GrowParadise]

Feed with high potassium fertiliser to encourage blooms. Also make sure it is in bright sunlight.

[@peterkuhne5243]

I keep mine at 8 degrees in a greenhouse. They are given a little water with 7 to 10 days between in wintertime. The 3 biggest are in 65 l containers and in summertime watered minimum 7 days a week using fertilizer EVERY time. I have the varigated type too but it does not get as big as the others. And this is in Denmark.

[@GrowParadise]

Sounds great, they are very hungry plants 😁

[@PattyAdcock-go4rp]

Are angel trumpet tree poisonous

[@Grrrnthumb]

Yes, all parts are poisonous, as are many plants in our gardens.

[@Grrrnthumb]

Not really cool to use the red Brugmansia, B. sanguinea, as you cover photo, when you've obviously never grown it and none of these methods will even begin to work for rooting it.

[@kevinanthony3888]

Brugmansia are poisonous but so are so many other plants in gardens, tomato leaves, Aubergine leaves etc, all poisonous but we aren't meant to make sandwiches from our garden plants.
