How to grow Brugmansia plants - Spring, Summer & Winter Tips!

[@christaylor9112]

Thanks Craig, that's a very informative video. I'd had trouble getting my Brugmansia to flower now but now see that I'd underestimated their need for feed.

[@andythompson9146]

I grow lots of these they are so simple also if you take your cutting just below the y. You will have a short plant that still flowers

[@francisgeorgemurphy]

Great video Craig, thanks. You've just shown me why my large Brugmansia has no flowers ! I'm off to do some feeding and will get it right next year.

[@moblndee36]

This was very informative. I just acquired a spindly one and wasn't sure how to care for it. Great information. Thank you.

[@tobiasshorter8639]

Have salmon perfection,pink,white,double yellow,single bloom yellow,creame burleigh,adube sanguine looking forward to getting more tips from you

[@MH9o4-k4b]

Recently got a cutting from a friend. Looking forward to growing it here in Florida. I learned a lot from your video, thanks!

[@mooeygarnet]

I grow datura stramonium, where the flowers grow gacing up. I wish I could find more videos about them! Lol all I see are the angels trumpets, mine are called jimsonweed, moon flowers, devils trumpet. Yall let me know if there are any videos I don't know about please!

[@indiancruise12]

You are amazing, I have grown lots of tropical plants here, brogmansia, pasiflora passion fruit vines.plumerias and more

[@ThePegasus101]

hi i got seeds in a pot and ordered 3 plants online..they arrived today so will grow them up then put them in pots outside..hope it works

[@PatRobinson-ul6zp]

Thank you so much - everything I needed to know about Brugmansia!

[@PurPrks]

why did you smell the flower at the beginning? isn't it poisonous and have similar effects to datura stronium?

[@rs-nk8cf]

How long did it take to start feeling that wiff you did

[@lacymccloud1671]

Thank you so much for the great care video! I'm just starting out with some cuttings that were gifted to me and this has been the most helpful info I've found! ❤

[@GrowParadise]

You are so welcome! Have fun growing them 😀🪴

[@tobiasshorter8639]

Just transferred my angel trumpets from water to pots have good rooting it's winter time here in the US shouldI start fertilizing now or should I wait

[@Templeflower8909]

Hi Craig, this year was my first time growing Brugmansia and I'm hooked. I'd like to try something more exotic looking like the variety in your video. Can you please tell me how many parts Neem Oil to water you use? Jasmin 🌸

[@Nonyabidness122]

Thank you for sharing your experience with this beautiful plant.

[@GrowParadise]

My pleasure 😊

[@thelabrees6337]

Is there a way to encourage branching or do you just let them do their own thing. I have small leaves growing in the crotch of the main stem and a large leaf. If I break that large leaf off will that form a branch?

[@merete8060]

Thank you so much. I learned everything I needed her. Great video 🎉

[@GrowParadise]

Glad it was helpful!

[@limpopoboy814]

I was given one (cutting) which I popped in the ground its about 6in tall now with a few paired leaves. My question is this. I want to place it in a pot. We are just entering autumn. Do I leave it in the ground through autumn/and winter ( we don't have terribly cold winters here maybe down to around 10 +/- deg C) or can I dig it up and place it in a pot now? Thanks

[@susannaylor451]

Ive put my brugmansia outdoors now. Its well watered and given fertiliser but the leaves seem to be more pale yellow than green, am i doung something wrong? 😢

[@Daynation69]

Could be multiple issues. Yellowing leaves are usually a sign of overwatering or lack in nutrients. Id let it dry back a bit and the next time you do a heavy water add some balanced plant fertiliser and see if that will help it come back.

[@susannaylor451]

hi, I've been feeding with tomato fertiliser. Not sure if that's enough or if I should try something else. It's in a large container pot in corner of garden so gets sunshine, when we have it.

[@treefrog123a]

Eat the leaves let it sprout new

[@Daynation69]

@@susannaylor451 sorry this is so late, but id suggest buying a fish fertiliser, (I prefer the Alaska brand) what’s nice about this is it won’t burn your plant so there’s no worry of over fertiliser. I don’t think it’s from lack of light but they do love the sunlight but for the most part are very tolerable in any lighting.

[@ROSUJACOB]

Thank you​@@Daynation69

[@franco634]

My brugmansia is doing very well but it drops most of its buds before they bloom. Any suggestions? Thank you in advance.

[@GrowParadise]

Don’t let it dry out, and feed twice a week with a high phosphate fertiliser (liquid tomato feed). That should help.

[@dek_ha9035]

How to know different between pink and white Brugmansia leaves?

[@RonnieWagner-m7n]

my plant leaves are turning yellow and falling off. I've read it can be too much water or not enough water. Any way to figure this out? The plant was in a pot I thought might have been too small so I transplanted it into a bigger pot and added granular organic fertilizer in the dirt. Not quite sure what else to do.

[@GrowParadise]

Brugmansia need LOTS of feeding, preferably twice a week. The leaves will quickly turn yellow if it is under fed.

[@fobsalerno9354]

I have pink and yellow plants which grow ingrown, i live in Atlanta, GA. Both plants bloom very well and I agree with the information in your video. My current plants are propagated by cuttings rooted in water indoors over winter. I have never seen seed pods develop on my plants and my garden has many pollinators, so I don't believe that is my situation. Do you have any clues that help with my lack of seed pods? Thanks

[@pwva4635]

Hey, do you have any cuttings for sale (both pink and yellow). I’m in Virginia, but I’m from Georgia as well. 😊I lived in Atlanta for a decade prior to moving up here. I first saw this plant in Canada a couple weeks ago and have been fascinated ever since.

[@MsMakatralsy]

How do I remove spent flowers? Do I just remove the white flower, or do I also remove the green part from which the flower grows?

[@GrowParadise]

Removing the green part will help put more energy into new flowers rather than allowing seed pods to develop :D

[@hilshils3426]

Oh dear, I’ve kept my new plant indoors this winter.. shall I put it outside in a frost free greenhouse for the next month? Then water & feed++ in April?

[@GrowParadise]

If it’s happy indoors then it’s not a problem 😀

[@lullasierra1]

no one's mentioned how much light they need? must be a minimum amount of sun? thx

[@VinnerDude]

Hi, I have a question. I ordered 2 double flowered whites las year. One started to bloom immediately and the other still has not had any flower. It has the same treatment as the other. What can I do to have flowers? I had Brugmansias before and never had this issue. The plant itself looks really healthy. Any ideas?

[@GrowParadise]

Feed with liquid tomato food, that will help encourage more blooms 😀

[@VinnerDude]

@@GrowParadise thanks so much for your answer, I will try that and let it know

[@RenuSingh-jy2md]

I have to purchase this yellow dhatura plant.

[@GrowParadise]

They are very beautiful 😀

[@GlasshouseandGarden]

Thanks for this video (as with your other drug videos). I've got four and have tried them planted in the ground this year for the first time (two in the glasshouse border and two in the garden). They have grown big and two have flowered well. I know I will have to dig up in the next couple of months and put in the heated glasshouse but I think they will take a hard prune before digging up.

[@omarjaved9748]

My brugmansia sanguinea has been in the ground for 4 years now and comes back and flowers every year. Even a couple of years ago after being buried under snow for a week. Of course it’s cut back to the ground but it seems to be root hardy with a couple of bags of compost piled on it.

[@GlasshouseandGarden]

@@omarjaved9748 Where are you based?

[@denisebedford4641]

This year I kept mine in the tire towers (tires provide extra heat and protection during the winter and also discourage wildlife and insects) over the winter. I also wrapped them in cuttings from a solar blanket - like the one we use for our koi pond. I'm anxious to see if they make it and come back in the spring. Fingers crossed because the plants were beautiful. It was my first year growing them.

[@susannaylor451]

Hi i feed most of my plants with tomato fertiliser and all doing really well, can i use on my brugmansia?

[@GrowParadise]

Absolutely! They are actually in the same Family as tomatoes 😀

[@susannaylor451]

@GrowParadise thank you. I was given a cutting from a friend so didn't have a clue what to do as it was going into October. So I kept it in my mini greenhouse which at the time was indoors. I've potted up the cutting which is about 12inches high and full of leaves. Your video has helped me understand the plant more now 👍😊

[@tarikmehmedika2754]

Can it be grown as a houseplant over winter if we don't have a cold spot ?

[@rastavycia]

It can.

[@thewaythingsare8158]

I'm so jealous I lost all mine in my big pots inwiltshire over winter. They are going to look great at the gardens there in Abbotsbury when they get going.

[@GrowParadise]

They are also surprisingly easy to grow from seed! I’m looking forward to seeing lots of them at Abbotsbury too, it’s the perfect spot for them 😀

[@peterkuhne5243]

I feed mine EVERY time I give them water. and mostly double the normal amount of fertilizer that I use for other plants. The biggest one needs 20 liter of water every day.

[@FA-yk9lj]

Wow! 20 liters every day! How big is your Brugmansia? Is it in the ground or a pot?

[@MicheleCave-j3h]

My yellow is in the ground blooms often my flesh color is in a pot hardly blooms

[@OssyDL]

How would you overwinter the cutting? With them being young would they need to be kept in growth in a propagator or just frost free with the foliage left on. Dont think ive been feeding mine enough😢😢😢

[@GrowParadise]

If you want to keep it actively growing then keep it in a well lit and heated propagator. Otherwise you can treat it the same as the semi-dormant parent once it has become well rooted. 👍

[@OssyDL]

Give mine a good feed yesterday only to get home from work to find it snapped in half 😢😢 either wind or a stray football. Looks like i have cuttings 😂

[@Salmiyaguy1]

What hardiness zone is he is in?

[@summerfling5415]

You may also use 1 tbsp of Epson Salt to 1 gal of water will help feed your plants also...

[@ShreeRam-u7s]

Hello, may you give me seeds. I want this plant in my Garden 🏡

[@djmocok]

Isnt this plant poisonous even to breathe in?

[@MightnightSamuraiSake]

It can also get you super high 😍

[@roni9275]

In here (India) I feed them mustard cake liquid fertilizer....try that

[@GrowParadise]

Interesting!
