Thank you SongofJoy. Last year I had over 30 blooms at one time, I am hoping the Brug does as well this year.

They're all lovely. We had a Brugmansia (house plant) for years, but I finally gave up and threw it away. It bloomed, and smelled heavenly, but I had to fight the spider mites constantly.

My brug lives in my conservatory but does struggle. I am thinking that when the weather warms up (if I mean) then I will repot it and keep it outside on our sun soaked deck and see how it fairs.

Your Brugmansia bloom is gorgeous! I tried to over winter mine but it doesn't seem to have survived.
