Brugmansia sanguinea
ANGEL'S TRUMPET SCARLET
SKU: 511-005
Description
This rare Angel's Trumpet has huge scarlet blooms! The flowers continue to be produced the entire growing season! The plants grow quickly to large plants, and if kept over winter they form shrubs which can easily be pruned to keep at a manageable and preferred size.
Brugmansia are frost tender. If you live in a colder region, bring plants indoors for the winter, and place in a sunny window. They overwinter well, and are easy to care for.
Do you know the difference? Angel's Trumpet's (Brugmansia) are different than Datura. Angel's Trumpets grow much larger and taller, up to 10' tall or more if you have a frost-free climate. If you live in a colder climate, plants can easily be grow in pots, trimmed back heavily, and taken indoors for the winter (to the surprise of many of our US customers, we do this at our location in Canada every year!). Angel's Trumpets also have larger (huge) flowers, and the flowers hang downwards. Datura flowers are also large, typically point upwards, and plants and flowers are large, though smaller than brugmansia. Datura plants last one growing season and then are done their cycle (die). They are considered annuals.
Note: These seeds and plants are toxic.
Germination: Start these seeds right away for best germination rates. Obtain a sterile seed-start mix. Sow the seeds just under surface of the soil, and water in. Keep lightly moist and do not let the soil dry out. A heat mat is beneficial to speed germination, or a very warm room, and out of direct sunlight until germination. Seeds germinate in 30-60 days. Once growing they should be placed at 20-22 °C, 68-72 °F until large enough to be planted outdoors.
