Thank you.. Very helpful. I'm in zone 6a and have easy propagation by cutting. Merry Christmas 🎉🎄✝️❤

Thank you for this video Thelma. Many years ago, I had the white and pink trumpets but somehow i lost them. Last year April whilst travelling through St. Elizabeth, i took a cutting from a plant by the roadside and that did not survive either. Thanks to you i now know that it likes a cool environment and will definitely try my hand at it again. As always, I found this demo quite useful. I have learnt so much from your channel Thelma, you are a God sent. Take care and God bless🙏🌹

Thanks Precious for you warm and generous support. It's so good to know you're watching. I'll keep one of the plants in the demo for you.🙏💕

They look so beautiful. I just bought a yellow one and am loving it. But, a friend told me to be very careful as they can be extremely poisonous. Is this true? I have a young child and dog so can't risk it, but, I don't want to remove it unless I can confirm what she said. Would love your thoughts please and thank you.

[@thelmamccatty9181]

Sorry for this late response. Yes, angel trumpet has toxic properties, so we should all be cautious around it. As mentioned in the video, certainly do not place it in areas frequented by kids and pets. And, based on personal experience, do not allow the sap to come in contact with your skin as this may cause a rash or blister.

Thank you for a comprehensive guide of your beautiful plants.

Thanks for the info! I'm on bloom watch with my first brug, grown from a cutting. The blooms are not even open yet and they are huge! I'm hoping to propagate more from this bursting beauty.

[@thelmamccatty9181]

You're welcome. I share your enthusiasm! I often call my husband to the window to breathe in the beautiful fragrance that perfumes the air just after sunset🤩

I bought two cutting that were a foot in height and they're already 6 feet talls and started blooming in the same season. It seems like they really like grow bags.

[@reneezancewoman]

They do grow so fast!

Angel trumpets are so pretty. But can be fickle. I have a double yellow a purple and a yellow... i had one eaten by catapillars and i thought it was dead but i just never got around to pulling the 'stick' and it came back the next year!! So dont pull ones you think are dead. I bought a small one...about a foot high and it bloomed with 2 flowers within a few months of being planted.

[@natka8181]

Thanks! My favorite part was you spead walking through your beautiful garden to show the mature one! Thanks for all the show qnd info!

I planted my first Angel Trumpet 2 months ago. It is growing beautifully- tall, green and healthy. Do i need to dig it up and plant in a pot for the winter? . I'm in zone 8a . The currently is 75/50.

[@thelmamccatty9181]

Oops, so sorry for my late response, I hope I'm not too late. Angel trumpet can survive outdoors during a mild winter but will be damaged or killed at temperatures below 40 F. If you haven't had your first frost, I suggest you take a few cuttings and set them to root in a bright location indoors so you'll have a lovely plant to take outdoors during spring. You could also protect the existing plant against frost as you would other delicate plants (e.g., trash blanket, and burlap covering). Please let us know how it survives.

How do you propagate angel Trumpets that grow close to the ground.

[@nicolaearghir3212]

Please excuse me. I have a question; why did you make the angle cut? I notice that you buried the plant with the angular cut upwards.

[@thelmamccatty9181]

Thanks for your question Nicolae. I make the different cuts to make sure I don't accidentally insert the cutting upside-down in the media. It has become a habit for me to make the slant cut at the top end of cuttings. A possible advantage of doing this is that water, instead of settling and perhaps rotting the cutting, will run off. I actually don't think it affects the rate of rooting whether you make the slant cut at the top or the bottom🌄

Does the angel trumpet flower continuously all year in your garden?

[@thelmamccatty9181]

Yes it does! About every 2 months. Every time it flowers I feel like doing another video😊

[@FA-yk9lj]

​@@thelmamccatty9181 Please make more videos about the angel trumpet. It is so beautiful 😍

[@ArtistCreek]

Mine do. It's pretty continual except in winter

How to know differents leaves pink and white

[@thelmamccatty9181]

Sorry, I'm unaware if one can identify different colored angel trumpets by their leaves. I checked a few articles and none mentioned how. But, if they're propagated from stem cuttings, they will definitely have the same color as the mother plant.
