- My guide to growing and propagating Brugmansia, commonly known as ‘Angel Trumpets’. Propagating Brugmansia from cuttings is surprisingly easy and you can grow many new Brugmansia plants. This guide on how to take cuttings from Brugmansia will guide you through the steps involved in selecting your cutting material, prepping you cuttings, rooting your cuttings and finally potting your rooted Brugmansia cuttings up.
Brugmansia, commonly called Angels Trumpets, are tropical shrubs and trees. Brugmansia are known for their enormous exotic blooms that exude a delicious heady fragrance. Brugmansia are vigorous plants that can be easily grown in many parts of the world when given the correct care. To get the best growth and flowering performance from your Brugmansia plants provide them with daily water and lots of liquid feed during the growing season.

I've had one brugmansia tree for 2 years. It's about 9 feet tall and beautiful. I've propagated 2 other huge brugmansia from it. It's such an amazing plant
I love them!
Good to hear this. Do you keep it in the ground? Raised bed? How do you cover it for winter? What part of the country are you in. It's supposed to be a H1C plant 5-10°. Sorry for all the questions.
have read theyre poisonous.. how poisonous could this be even inhaling the flower is dangerous.. any exp?
Excellent video
In the early 1990's we had a 12' double brugmansia in our San Francisco garden at 9th and Sanchez. A freak cold snap down to 25' felled it into a sad melted pile, but I held hope until spring. Sure enough, up came new shoots! We had blooms by early summer. Your video about rooting cuttings gives me extra confidence to try it in the ground here in Portland, Oregon. If I do lose it, I'll simply replant from my cuttings. Thanks!
Hi Craig, welcome back! Didn't realise Brugmansia was so easy to propagate in water. Following your instructions, I have taken some cuttings of my cream-coloured one and am keeping my fingers crossed. Thanks for the video.
Cheers Allie, good luck with your cuttings! 😄🌿🌱
My grandmother just gave me cutting from hers and they've started rooting in her bucket of water. After this next cool snap gets outta here I'll then plant them in my garden. She also gave me a butterfly bush and its doing great brings in lost of butterflies and humming birds plus humming bird moths. I live in. Seneca South Carolina the weather has been crazy cold and its nearly May. Thanks for sharing your video with all of us💚❤💛💙💜
They will grow very fast when you plant them out, I wish I could have hummingbirds in my garden! 😄
Thanks so much craig for this inspirational video. I look forward to growing a brugmansia when i move house. Its a special plant that has it all!
Cheers Craig. Cool info. My first year growing Brugmansia. Seeing your stuff has made me wanna try some cuttings. And also move my plant next year fron the pot to into the ground!. Cheers
I just bought one today thank you for this video
Thank you for this video Craig, I’m just about to have to move one and am so worried it,ll die, but now I feel confident to propagate it !
Thank you for your guide!
I’m going to take some cuttings today . I know it’s late but hopefully Some will take I shall keep you posted many thanks for your video
Hopefully the cuttings rooted for you?
Very helpful, thank you!
Thank you for the info!!
Thanks for your advice ,from my wind damaged plant I now have lots of extra plants for next year! Keep up the excellent work
Haha, always happy to help 👌🌿
Awesome technique, thank you. I shall make this way.
That was awesome. Easy to understand procedure. Thanks a million.
thank you so much ! Your share is so great> I wish I could show you my angel trumpet that somehow I was able to raise up from a wee lil thing. I will propagate it and continue to share the love of it as you have here.
Need to try them
Really great video - thanks.
Thanks for watching!
Nice vid , just bought a potted plant and will keep inside for the winter - warm conservatory - looking forward to having a go at propagating !!
Great video. Thanks. Nicely paced and helpful. I grow Brugmansias and all things Solanaceae up in Northumberland. Not realistic up here to plant outside - too cold but successful in a polytunnel. Good to meet a fellow fan. Thanks.
Thank you for posting this video! I just purchased a yellow angel trumpet and was hoping to give cuttings to family and friends. Very excited to try your method. Happy gardening! 😊🌱🐛🦋🌸
No problem, I’m glad it helped 👍🙂
Thank you for the very helpful and clear instructions. 🙏🏼🌷
No worries, thanks for watching 😁
Awesome!!! I want a pink one, only have white. Ya got me excited, yippee!!
🙂
I love this plan and I learned more how I can keep them to grow, thank
Thanks for watching 😁
So... beautiful
Superb video, very clear and extremely well explained.
Best video I’ve seen on this process! TFS💃🏻
Thanks for watching!
PERFECT TIMING… came across your video and actually just did this after watching, then subscribing to your channel. I have one cutting just now in water for rooting, first time trying this method with the Angel trumpet. Hoping for a good success. Thanks for sharing your knowledge about these beautiful flowers. Peace and Love always ❤️
Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment, I'm so happy that you found the video helpful 😀🪴👍
I have been growing plumeria , passion fruit, brogmansia, curry leaf mangoes and many more in the UK. Love this video
Wow, I'll have to try some of those too 😁 Thanks for watching
Thank you so much for the video. I have two huge angel trumpets and are in the process of moving, I'll be taking some clippings with me!!!
Happy to help! Thanks so much for watching 😄🌿🌴👍
Good useful video again as usual🙂👍
Thank you so much for helping me to get started. Yours are so beautiful!!!!
No problem, I'm glad the video has helped 😁
Hi!!! I’ve got my Angel trumpets ready for planting and moved them outside last week once the warm weather set in. Now they have yellow spots all over them. (They’re still in their pots) any suggestions? I’m devastated. Thank you!!!🙂
Lovely ❤️
Thanks 👍
Got three seedlings growing at the moment, hoping to get some great plants next year.
Thanks for sharing the information, I will try next time thanks again
Thanks for watching 👍
Thank you
Thanks for watching 🙂
Would love some insight how to beat over winter this plant in cold climates 🙏🏼
Thanks
Many garden sites caution that it can take years to get flowers from a Brugmansia cutting. But a master gardener told me years ago that you can get flowers *in the first year* by planting the cuttings taken “above the Y”--specifically, above where a branch splits at a 90 degree angle into two flowering branches. I have found this to be true after several years of experimentation--but I do remove all submerged leaves and change the water every day until they’re potted, lest the cut ends start rotting.
When I moved from my zone 7b-8 house to zone 7a (North Carolina in the US), I took a dozen cuttings, all above the “Y”, from my beloved 8-year-old, 12 ft tall B. “Dr Seuss” and potted them up to take with me.
They grew fast over winter with a little window light in my basement, and I kept removing the largest leaves. In spring I planted two in the ground, and gave the rest away to my new neighbors. Mine grew to 5 feet tall and wide that first summer with regular water and fertilizer, and bloomed beautifully. (I even got my first-ever seed pod--not that I need it, as I prefer to grow from cuttings even if it’s a bit of a winter chore.)
My friends and neighbors marvel that their gifts produced big plants with blooms all summer too--one friend kept hers in a pot, moved it indoors before the frost, and still has flowers now, in December!
I always cut down my in-ground plants after the frost kills them, leaving 3-6 inches of “bones” so I can see where it is for next year--covered with several inches of mulch. Meanwhile, in case we get a hard winter that kills my in-ground plants, I have plenty of babies to plant in their place!
Great comment with so much useful info, thanks for sharing. I have found the same thing with cuttings taken from above the 'Y'. 👍😁🌱
Just took my cuttings two days ago, this is very helpful because I only had the ends in water, plus I have taken enough leaves off, thank you very much 😊
No problem, thanks for watching 😀
Success after watching this video, thank you so much of sharing your experience. It took a few weeks for the roots to form, but looking forward to summer.
Great news! I am glad the video helped 👍 Youll have a Brugmansia jungle by September 😁
@Grow Paradise 1 year on, how did your overwintering go Craig?
Trying this technique this year
Good luck, propagation is great fun 👍
I was given two cuttings last autumn and I am looking forward to growing on and taking my own cuttings. Thanks for the tips.
Excellent video! Thanks so much for all of your work! I'm getting ready in a week or two to chop mine up. It's my first summer with a Brugmansia and I've had great success with it so far. Cheers bud!
Great video. I just got one plant-stick, and as soon as replanted it, took off like crazy. It’s absolutely beautiful 💕💕💕. Thank you. 🙏🏻🇺🇦🌍👍❤️💕🌿☮️🕉💓💚🍀🌻🌼🌏💜🌎
Thanks Erica, they are fantastic plants 😁
Nice
My mother plant is about 12 yrs old. I have it in a large pot and I cut it back and put in the garage over winter.
Brilliant video learnt a lot I will have a go on my trumpet plant by the way I live in Hereford England
Thank you 😀🌱🌴🪴 Good luck 👍
Thank you 👏🇳🇿
Thanks Craig....im just getting into angel trumpets in the USA in the state of TN.....i have one that is now 3 feet tall and 7 others are smaller. I water them every day and have been using chicken manure tea and potted them with a nix of compost sand and peat moss to hold water....so far mine are doing great and I'll put them in the greenhouse to over winter.....
Sounds like you soon have a forest of these beautiful blooms 🌿🌸🙂
@@GrowParadise not a forest but a midnight garden of both good and evil
...every plant in that smells wonderful has beautiful blooms but is either a medicinal like foxgloves (digitalis) or deadly poisonious like my curare vine....
@@sherryglisson4885 would you be willing to send me a cutting? I'm near you
@@BhaktaChasedon't have any they all froze
Beautifully explained dear, can you share its medicinal use and importance... it will great help to human kind...Greetings from Pushpendra, Jabalpur India.
I bought two Angel Wings this past late Summer on sale put them in a dark place watered them only twice. It is now mid February took them out watered them and put them into the light. I can say they are not dead.
Hi. U explained really well. Can u plz also explain how to grow rose from cutting.. thank u
I tried some cutting in Oct of this year and is now towards the end of Nov don’t see any roots yet but I don’t have the water all the way up the jar so just changed the water and added some peroxide to the water and brought them in my laundry room as my garage is about 50 degrees maybe to go for them to root
What a great video,I took a few cutting from my plants last oct I have green leaves growing on the plant but no roots growing but I had them in my cold garage should I bring in the house would that be better
Warmth will help the roots form, try them in your house 👍😁
Its my first year with these amazing plants. But a word of warning. I recently removed the very spikey seed pods without gloves. Big mistake. They are very sharp and tricky to handle and I clearly pricked myself a few times. Following that my hands became very, very itchy and hot. I couldn't get relief by scratching then and had to take antihistamines to calm them down. After half an hour the itchiness had travelled up my arm to my elbow. Took 3 hours to ease. My friend who gave me the cuttings doesn't suffer at all so it may just be me. Please be mindful this could be an issue for some though.
Very useful heads up, thanks for letting me know mate. I’ll be sure to take care 👍🌱🙂
Steve, I'm afraid you may have mistaken your Brugmansia for a Datura. Brugmansia seed pods do not have spikes. Datura's do. Apart from this obvious diff, Brugmansia flowers hang down and Datura's grow upward.
@@trikkke11 the flowers on these definitely hang down.
@@steve1894 Congratulations, Steve ! You have found a Brugmansia with thornapples ! You need to write a book about it.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I truly needed to know what to do- JUST IN CASE!! 👍🏼
Hi there, I have planted 1 cutting of brugmansia last spring gifted by a friend of mine then in last July I took 10 cuttings from my plant. All are matured. This spring I have plan to grow it commercially. I have yellow color and looking for other colors. Really I love this plant and fragrance of the flowers.
Sounds great 👍😁
Hi, I am an American expat now living in a tropical paradise in the Philippines. When we bought our hose and lot out in the country, our yard man brought us 3 Angels Trumpets he got out of the jungle near our property and he just stuck them into the ground. We now have seven of them. From what I have found, they are hallucenogenic., not poisonous. We have a lot od them growing here in the Philippines. Yes, they sure do use a lot of water. My wife and I sure do enjoy them.
Thanks so much for taking the time to share your story. I am so jealous of the climate you have in the Philippines, I bet the plants are fantastic there! 😀
Late but they are almost definitely poisonous. The things that make them hallucinogenic are poisonous. People have died from ingesting 2 pods while some who ingest 8 pods barely get any effects. Very spookie
@@John-B-Goodenough As the Shamen of the indigenous people of the Amazon who used this plant in their ceremonies warned about using this plant by those who didn't know how to prepare it properly. It could cause death. This could be the same for those who misuse other drugs like LSD and cocaine It now grows in the wild here in the Philippines. I grow it for the beautiful flowers it produces. Studies have found it to be successful against certain cancer cells. One of the commenters on here said he ate one of the leaves and went on a trip through Lala land for 15 hours. I have no interest in doing that.. Thanks for your comments. I just did a video of other tropical plants that I have in my yard if you are interested. Thanks and have a great day.
First thanks for the video. How fast do these grow and do the bloom the first year ?
Blimey they root well - The stems are quite tomato like? Makes sense as they’re both in the Solanaceae family!
What do you do for this when it is cold? Do you just leave it or do you need to wrap it through any cold weather when it is in the ground. I have two but this is my first year, I pull them inside when the temperature drops low. Any information you could pass along as far as care through the temperature swings would be so helpful. Thank you
I rooted my plants in clear plastic cups. They have done very well but now it’s time to put them in big pots. Where do you store these pots till it’s time to plant them in the ground? It is in the 30’s here. When do you plant them in the ground? I got these trimmings from my mama’s yard. She passed last January 3. She loved her angel trumpets very much.
Hi craig. Its beautiful. I like the way the flowers are spread out rather than clumped together and the colour is lovely. Does it have a name/variety ?
I’m not sure about this one, a friend gave it to me and said he had no idea what type it was 😂🌿
You've got a good friend there 😂
Hello, thank you for this great video, just a question when you have rooted your cuttings where do you keep them throughout the winter, may greenhouse is not heated and I am not sure they will survive. Do I have to keep them indoors? Many thanks
This was great, thank you. I was actually looking for some guidance on moving a 6 year old tree from a large ceramic pot into the ground. Is there anything I need to know?
I would just say to not be too worried about cutting it back to get it to fit into the pot. It might look a bit sad this year but in spring it will recover quickly 🙂 good luck!
Thank you for the video, so informative 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 which zone are you?
I am in zone 9b 👍😁
@@GrowParadise Thank you!
Nice vid . I’m growing 3 brugs and want to porpogatee
Good luck! They root very quickly 😀
Hi! I have a 2 months old brugmansia grown from cuttings and it's already blooming! In spring I'd like it to plant it in the ground but I have some concerns about winter temperatures (I live in the south of Italy and during winter temperature rarely goes under 0C and when it does it reaches at max -1/-2). Do you grow your brugmansias in the ground? If yes how do you cope with winter temperatures? What do you think is their temperature hardiness? Thank you in advance your garden is so inspiring to me
Thanks for your kind words. The climate on my garden is very similar to yours. This year I am leaving one of my plants outside and planted in the ground as a bit of an experiment. I have taken cuttings as a backup just in case it doesn’t make it through the winter. I’ve made a second video on overwintering these plants, feel free to check it out 👍🌱
Many thanks for your very informative video. Both of my brugansia plants have done really well. Soo pleased.
I’m in UK , which month woukd be best for taking cuttings.?
Kind regards
I take my cuttings in late October, but anytime before severe cold weather is fine 👍
9 l0v3 crazy this plant
I'm having problems this year trying to grow some seeds of brugmansia :( don't what to do. Beautiful plant
I’m growing them from seed this year too, a tip I’ve been given is to soak them in water for 24 hours first. I hope that helps 👍😀🌱
how often do you get seed pods? iv had these for a few years and never once seen a seed
How close to the trunk/main stalk of the tree do you cut off your branch to use for this project? Right where the branch meets the tree or a few inches out?
I have one that's been in the ground several years and has never bloomed . Do they prefer morning sun ? I have seen them in full sun blooming .
O.minune.unica
How long does it take for a trumpet clipping to grow flowers mine's already starting to grow leaves
Can I use bonemeal on the new plants before putting in the soil?
I would love to know how the big one you left outside faired? Did it survive? Did you do a video about it? Thanks :-)
Hi, it did survive and regrow to about 6ft. It didn't flower though, I think because it had to put so much energy onto regrowth. 👍
Hi there! Super helpful as I've had Brugs for years. One question. I live in Seattle. After rooting in water and potting in started pots should I keep inside for winter?
I have mine in my new heated greenhouse, but indoors is good too. Anywhere where they don’t get too cold 👍😀🌱
My first cutting was just potted in a little styrofoam cup after it had rooted. I kept it in the house because we have very severe weather in the winter, in Ohio. Is winter progressed and went into spring I kept putting it in a bigger pot giving the roots more room to spread and it had grown quite a bit probably a good 3 ft. Then in the summer I brought it outside and it did wonderfully in a nice big pot. This year I followed the same steps, however I forgot to put the plant on top of a flat stone when I put it in one of my flower beds and it had rooted itself into the soil. Lol.
Can the cut-off leaves and stems be composted?
This plant is POISNOUS.
I have this plant in a pot inside my house about 2 feet tall. I am in Canada. When can I expect to see some flowers? Thanks.
Should the water be changed out frequently? I noticed the water in your jars looks really clean.
Change it every 1-2 weeks, if it looks murky, change it.
I just received 5 different cuttings in the mail, all have been put in the garden. Can you plant cuttings of different colored varieties together so you get a multicolored bush/tree?
They might end up fighting for space, but worth a try 😃👍
Hello, about to start my journey growing Brugmansia ....a question if i may do you leave them out over winter as in the video thats one big plant tia tony
I have left the really big one outside, it’s been down to -4•C but it’s too early to tell if it’s died. This is the first time I have left one outside 🤞🤞🤞🤞🌱 I have an overwintering video for Brugmansia too, check it out and hopefully that will help 👍
After getting the plant out of the glass with its developed roots and put in a small pot, do you have the pot in shade or sun? Do you water or not? I put them in water today
I would have it somewhere shady to prevent it wilting 😁👍
I'd love to have info about growing crown of thorns....i have one being delivered tomorrow to try it... Thanks
I have many in SW Florida. They're slow growers and great for zero landscaping.
Plant them in FULL sun and water them sparingly. Oh, and check out
Pachypodium lamerei. They are even cooler, but be careful. Good luck!
@@notsure1101 hey is there a common name for that plant? I'm trying to look it up now
@@sherryglisson4885 Madagascar Palm, even though it's not a palm.
@@notsure1101 thank you
So, I am not sure when I should cut my Brugmansia. Should I wait until the first frost hits it? I'm up in the Northeast (zone 6b) and the nights are going to drop down to around 45f. It's blooming like a banshee right now. I want the best chance for the cuttings to root in water during the winter down in my basement. Any help is greatly appreciated as always. Thanks!
I’d definitely do it before the frosts, do it while it’s still growing and you will have a better chance of the cuttings rooting. Good luck mate 👍🌱
I'd like to know how to take cuttings successfully from the orangey yellow brugmansia from S America - which I have growing in my back yard in NZ. These brugmansia need specialised humming birds pollinate them.
I think it should be the same process as I show in this video 👍
Did anyone else giggle when he said "it's time to start rooting"?
I saw these in Hawaii like 7 years ago and my mom told me they’re so poisonous you can die from just touching them. I’ve had a big fear of them ever since. The other night I dreamed there was one of these plants tangled around my body and I couldn’t get it off. I was scared to breathe the pollen in and held my breath as I tried to get untangled from it. I woke up gasping for air 😅
touching it wont kill u and its not as poisonous as you think but its still extremely poisonous, some people eat multiple seeds to get high but its not a fun trip at all
Hi Craig, what’s the latest month you would take cuttings? (UK).
Hello, I would say mid to late October but it is very weather dependant. Before the temperatures drop below 10 degrees celsius frequently at night 👍🪴
hello, do you replace the water in the the jars when it starts to discolour tia tony
Yes, every 2-3 days is a good idea 👍🌱
My brug was started from a cutting about a foot long many years ago. It is now about 7 ft tall...... BUT has only bloomed once. I give it miracle grow freq, and water. The plant itself looks good and healthy. I the summer I move the pot outside in the sun. What do I need to do to get bloom
I would possibly consider potting it into as big a pot as you have space for (and are able to move) 😀
@@GrowParadise done that last yr
If l plant this flower into the ground,will it survive over the winter? I live in MI, and sometimes we have cold days during winter. Thank you
Hi Olga. I live in Ohio and our winters are very severe just like yours are in Michigan. No the plant will not survive the winter because it's a tropical plant. But if you want the plant to grow again next year just take cuttings like he's showing in the video. My friends and I have done this all the time and it works out wonderfully.
@@lilianc5792 they do survive in Ohio. You need to cut them back like he showed you, dig up root ball and place in container. I put them in basement where it's 50° at least, sparingly using water. Then about Aprila remove grom basement to outside. Keep in container about one month. Water more frequently and feed. Replace in ground when no fear of frost.
Grows in sun or shade???
How often do you change the water, and is it ok to root outside?
I change my water every 2-3 days, you can root them outside if it doesnt get too cold. They will need heat to keep them wanting to grow 👍
What do you do to overwinter in the UK.(London)?
I have done a video all about that 😁
Not had too much success with my potted brugmansia this summer. I winterized it last year inside and it came back ok this year. So far I having had any flowers on it. I have fed it and watered it but suspected there could be a bug problem but couldn't find anything on it. It's now looking a little ragged, do u think I should tepot it? I will attempt to take some cuttings and hope they root. Any ideas of what's gone wrong or has it been the poor weather conditions this year? I live in Lincolnshire.
A lot of Brugs have been slow to get going in the UK this year because of the long cold spring. I'd recommend potting it up into a bigger container if you can and ensure you are giving it plenty of food. 👍
Thank u for the info, so it's ok to repot now? Can I take some cuttings? I cant believe it but looked at it today and a little flower bud has finally appeared. I don't suppose it will make it to the flowering at this late stage.
