Summary

A showcase of floral majesty from late spring to early fall!

Angel’s Trumpet, or Brugmansia aurea, is a standout plant known for its dramatic, oversized flowers that dangle like bells from its branches. Its presence in a garden commands attention and adds an air of tropical sophistication.

The enchantment begins in late spring, as the plant unfurls its large, trumpet-shaped blooms, filling the air with a sweet, intense fragrance. The flowers, which come in shades ranging from creamy white to deep yellow, illuminate the garden, especially at twilight when they seem to glow.

Brugmansia aurea is not only a visual feast but also a sensory experience, with its aromatic flowers creating a serene and almost mystical atmosphere.

Flower color will likely be shades of orange, but may vary due to conditions such as: genetics, temperature, soil, fertilization, humidity, and light exposure.

Care

Angel’s Trumpet Care

Angel’s Trumpet (Brugmansia aurea) prefers well-draining soil and should be placed in a location that receives partial shade to full sun. In hotter climates, afternoon shade can help protect the plant from excessive heat.

Fertilization and Watering

Regular feeding with a high-potassium fertilizer promotes healthy blooms. Our slow release fertilizer is perfect for ensuring a steady supply of nutrients. Watering should be consistent, keeping the soil moist but not waterlogged to prevent root rot.

Pruning

Pruning is crucial for maintaining the desired shape and encouraging more prolific blooming. After the main flowering period, cut back the branches that have flowered to about one-third of their length to stimulate new growth and flowers. Remove any dead or damaged wood to keep the plant healthy and well-ventilated.

Overwintering

In colder northern regions, Angel’s Trumpet can be overwintered indoors to protect it from frost. Before the first frost, prune the plant back to about one-third of its size to make it more manageable indoors. Place it in a cool, bright room where temperatures remain between 50-60°F (10-15°C). Water sparingly during the winter to prevent the soil from drying out completely but avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot.

Temperature Considerations for Patio Plants

When used as a patio plant in colder northern regions, Brugmansia aurea should not be exposed to temperatures below 35°F (2°C). If temperatures are expected to drop, it is advisable to move the plant indoors or to a protected area. For regions where the plant is left outside, ensure it is placed in a sheltered location to minimize exposure to cold winds and frost.

Overall, regular care, proper pruning, and appropriate overwintering practices will help your Angel’s Trumpet thrive and produce its spectacular, fragrant blooms year after year.

Angel's Trumpet success!

I bought an Angel's Trumpet for an anniversary present for my wife. We were not only surprised by how quickly it arrived but how many buds were already on the plant. What a wonderful reminder of her late mother's (her favorite plant).

Excellent Plants

We order two of the Angle trumpets, they are beautiful fully grown plants, one even had a flower on it. We transplanted them in the ground and within two days they looked great. Very Happy with these plants.

Thanks so much for the wonderful review, John! We’re thrilled to hear the Angel’s Trumpets arrived strong and already showing off with a bloom! Sounds like they’re settling in beautifully. We really appreciate your support and are so glad you’re happy with your plants!

Healthy happy plant

I was so happy to receive myAngel Trumpet plant in very good condition. It was slightly bent from shipping but I just faced it away from the sunlight and its straightening right out as it bends toward the sun. It has even gotten two beautiful blooms since out arrives. This is one of the beat and healthiest plants I have ever gotten by mail. I’m very pleased with my purchase and will purchase more from this nursery in the future. 5 Stars !!!

Thank you so much for the glowing review, Judi! We’re thrilled to hear your Angel Trumpet arrived happy, bounced back from the journey, and is already blooming—that’s what we love to hear! It means a lot to know it’s one of the best mail-order plants you’ve received. We’ll be here whenever you’re ready for the next one!

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us a 5-star review, Paul! 😊 Sorry for the delayed reply—we’ve been busy getting settled on a new farm after a winter move. We’re thrilled to hear your Brugmansia arrived in great shape and is already blooming! That’s what we love to hear. Enjoy those stunning flowers!

We ordered the angel trumpet as a gift, the recipient was thrilled with the size and health of the plant. They sent us a picture when it bloomed. Beautiful!
