From late spring to early winter, we are blessed with a dazzling tropical plant known as Brugmansia spp., or Angel’s Trumpet. A member of the Solanaceae family and originally native to tropical South America, Angel’s Trumpet has since become naturalized in North America. Its name refers to the giant pendulous flowers that this plant produces. Its large, lavish flowers are fragrant, even more so at night to attract moths for pollinating. One variety in particular, the Super Nova, is so big it can be worn as a hat. Angel’s Trumpet is available in many colors, including white, pink, yellow, orange, red and a beautiful peach. Brugmansia are easy to grow and cultivate, even as container plants. They prefer acidic soil, but will tolerate our alkaline soil. Angel’s trumpet are not drought- or salt-tolerant and require lots of fertilizer. This plant will grow best in full sun to partial shade, and can be trained as a shrub or tree. Angel’s Trumpet will grow as tall as 20 feet, although the majority grow to approximately 12 feet high and span 6 to 12 feet wide. Its substantial leaves grow 8 to 12 inches long and 6 to 10 inches wide.
