Brugmansia 2014

My only Brug - B.sanguinea today.....................


@Wayne - as there's plenty of material I want to take a few cuttings. What's the best way to go about this?

 

Out of the 13 cutting that are left here,i think only 2 have flowers,no idea why,ive treated them all the same
Last yr i didnt get a flower til late june twas worth the wait them smell divine

 

From a seed you grew last year perhaps? (Just curious )

 

All my cuttings were taken above the Y on my plants so you should get flowers xx

 

Here is mine that was delivered a couple of weeks ago and lost a lot of leaves but has picked up loads since. The middle one had no leaves on last week.



Im guessing i haven't got a chance of getting flowers this year

 

No they are all cuttings(taken in autumn) from the cuttings sal sent me the previous yr

 

You'll be suprises just how quickly it will grow. Enjoy!!

Wayne

 

Are they three different plants?
If so, you might be best potting them separately.

I'd guess you could be getting some flowers by late summer.

 

yeh they are three in one pot thats how i bought them they are suppose to end up like this http://www.spaldingbulb.co.uk/product/angels-trumpet-tricolor-mix/

i wont be separating them I will see how they go. If they don't work oh well and if they do brilliant

 

Anyone grafted multiple Brug varieties scions onto a single plant/rootstock?

I have some varieties that don't perform very well. I wonder if they would perform better if I grafted them onto a cutting from a more vigorous variety?

 

Give it a try, I once got datura to grow on cyphomandra for a season.

Yeah,............its a nice photo.
Hope it works out.

 

One of my 6 plants sown in Feb , just repotted into a 7.5ltr pot.

 

I'm sorry, but I really don't like that
I would pot them up separately if it were me. That has been grown under glass with much care to produce those plants for publicity photos.

I'm finding D.wrightii to be a reliable (tender) perennial. Shove it in the shed dry for the winter and when it's warm enough it starts growing, which is when I move it and start to water it. Poor mans Brug I know, but takes up a lot less space if you're struggling the way that I am.
