They originally come from South America, where they thrive in the open air at various altitudes. The angel trumpet was introduced to Europe as an ornamental plant and is mainly kept there as a tub plant due to the climatic conditions.<\/p>\n<p>In the Mediterranean area, some cultivars can survive in the open field. The tree- or shrub-shaped plants grow to a height of between 2 and 5 meters and usually form hanging, calyx-shaped flowers.

Often there are also hybrid forms, which were bred from different species. Each variety has different characteristics and is therefore differently suitable for different types of husbandry. In the following, we present you with a colorful selection of colorful angel trumpets.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"White_Varieties_Of_The_Trumpet_Flower\"><\/span>White Varieties Of The Trumpet Flower<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Brugmansia arborea belongs to the classic white angel trumpets. This wild species originally comes from the Colombian Andes and is therefore a quite robust angel trumpet. The plant has rather small, about 15 cm long flowers, which are less luxuriant but bloom quite early in the year. In addition, this trumpet plant exudes a beguiling, flowery scent.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9087\" src=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Brugmansia-arborea-flowers-creamy-white-to-pure-white.jpg\" alt=\"Brugmansia arborea flowers creamy white to pure white\" width=\"750\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Brugmansia-arborea-flowers-creamy-white-to-pure-white.jpg 750w, https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Brugmansia-arborea-flowers-creamy-white-to-pure-white-300x180.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Another white angel trumpet is the hybrid Brugmansia x candida, which was crossed from the species Brugmansia Versicolor and Brugmansia aurea. The &#8220;White Angel Trumpet&#8221; is a very flowering and robust variety, which can sometimes withstand bad weather conditions well. The cross is therefore a very popular trumpet plant, which is also well suited for beginners.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Red_Angel_Trumpets\"><\/span>Red Angel Trumpets<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Brugmansia sanguinea originally comes from Colombia and Chile. The species smells only very little, but it beguiles with long, red flowers and is therefore also called the blood-colored angel trumpet. A special feature of this variety is also its flowering time:<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-note\"  style=\"border-color:#e3e288;border-radius:8px;-moz-border-radius:8px;-webkit-border-radius:8px;\"><div class=\"su-note-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\" style=\"background-color:#fdfca2;border-color:#ffffff;color:#000000;border-radius:8px;-moz-border-radius:8px;-webkit-border-radius:8px;\">In contrast to other species, Brugmansia sanguinea blooms rather late in the year and delights us over the winter with its colorfulness. However, this trumpet plant is less suitable for beginners as it is quite susceptible to diseases and sensitive to moisture.<\/div><\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9088\" src=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/The-blood-red-angel-trumpet-is-a-real-blaze-of-color.jpg\" alt=\"The blood red angel trumpet is a real blaze of color\" width=\"750\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/The-blood-red-angel-trumpet-is-a-real-blaze-of-color.jpg 750w, https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/The-blood-red-angel-trumpet-is-a-real-blaze-of-color-300x180.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Purple_Angel_Trumpets\"><\/span>Purple Angel Trumpets<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The hybrid Brugmansia x Flava does not have such a beguiling scent as its sisters. Instead, the variety enchants with long, tubular, dark purple to red flowers that shine mainly in spring and autumn. However, as the hybrid is very susceptible to diseases and incorrect care, it is also more suitable for more experienced amateur gardeners.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9090\" src=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Purple-Angel-Trumpet-.jpg\" alt=\"Purple Angel Trumpet\" width=\"750\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Purple-Angel-Trumpet-.jpg 750w, https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Purple-Angel-Trumpet--300x180.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Yellow_Angel_Trumpets\"><\/span>Yellow Angel Trumpets<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Brugmansia aurea is also called the Golden Angel Trumpet because of its mostly yellow, rarely white flowers. The species, which originally comes from Ecuador, grows up to 6 m high, bears large, bright flowers, and exudes a pleasant scent. Unfortunately, Brugmansia aurea is often attacked by pests in our country.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9089\" src=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Brugmansia-aurea-is-also-called-the-Golden-Angel-Trumpet-.jpg\" alt=\"Brugmansia aurea is also called the Golden Angel Trumpet \" width=\"750\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Brugmansia-aurea-is-also-called-the-Golden-Angel-Trumpet-.jpg 750w, https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Brugmansia-aurea-is-also-called-the-Golden-Angel-Trumpet--300x180.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Also, the Brugmansia suaveolens often shines in tender or more intensive yellow tones. In this species, the color is not always clear and can vary from white to yellow to pink. But it is very undemanding and well suited for beginners. In addition, the plant exudes a very intense smell and is therefore also called the Fragrant Angel Trumpet.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9091\" src=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/The-flower-color-of-Brugmansia-suaveolens-is-quite-variable.jpg\" alt=\"The flower color of Brugmansia suaveolens is quite variable\" width=\"750\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/The-flower-color-of-Brugmansia-suaveolens-is-quite-variable.jpg 750w, https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/The-flower-color-of-Brugmansia-suaveolens-is-quite-variable-300x180.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Angel_Trumpet_Planting_Location_Earth\"><\/span>Angel Trumpet Planting: Location, Earth<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Angel trumpets are frugal in the choice of location and earth. Basically, any kind of potting soil can be used. However, since the trumpet plants have a high water requirement in summer and especially on hot days, an earth with a good water reservoir and little cuttings is a good choice. For this purpose, many choose peaty soil.<\/p>\n<p>However, consider this step carefully, because peat has many questionable and environmentally harmful properties: When the raw material is mined, large amounts of carbon dioxide are released and valuable ecosystems are destroyed. Therefore, you should water more often on hot days and use peat-free soil &#8211; such, which is not only 100% peat-free, but also particularly sustainable and reduces CO2 emissions by up to 60% compared to conventional soils.<\/p>\n<p>Although many breeds tolerate direct sunlight well, angel trumpets thrive best in partial shade. There the loss of water on hot days can also be somewhat reduced. Ideally, the plant should also be protected from too much weather, as heavy rain and hail can quickly damage the sensitive leaves.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9092\" src=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Somewhat-protected-by-a-roof-or-on-the-house-wall-the-Brugmansia-feels-particularly-comfortable.jpg\" alt=\"Somewhat protected by a roof or on the house wall, the Brugmansia feels particularly comfortable\" width=\"750\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Somewhat-protected-by-a-roof-or-on-the-house-wall-the-Brugmansia-feels-particularly-comfortable.jpg 750w, https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Somewhat-protected-by-a-roof-or-on-the-house-wall-the-Brugmansia-feels-particularly-comfortable-300x180.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Angel_Trumpet_Care_Our_tips_for_the_Brugmansia\"><\/span>Angel Trumpet Care: Our tips for the Brugmansia<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>As already mentioned, Brugmansia needs a lot of water in summer. Water regularly, but avoid waterlogging. You will soon notice exactly how much water your plant needs because the trumpet plants will quickly lose their leaves if there is a lack of water. This is not a big deal, but it is a clear request to you to water more in the future.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Angel_trumpets_cutting\"><\/span>Angel trumpets cutting<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Since the trumpet plants can grow several meters tall, regular pruning of the plants is recommended. It is best to cut back your angel trumpets radically in the late year before wintering. The desired size of the plant should be determined very early, as only the new, still green branches should be cut off. The older, lignified areas, on the other hand, should be avoided, as otherwise the growth will be radically slowed down at this point. As a precaution, wear gloves when cutting the poisonous plant.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9094\" src=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Angel-trumpets-cut.jpg\" alt=\"Angel trumpets cutting\" width=\"750\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Angel-trumpets-cut.jpg 750w, https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Angel-trumpets-cut-300x180.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fertilizing\"><\/span>Fertilizing<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>All Brugmansia varieties need a lot of nutrients and therefore need to be fertilized regularly. Fertilization should be started at the beginning of the growth phase in March or April. A normal plant fertilizer can be used throughout the summer, or a special growth fertilizer can be added at the beginning. For a strong growth pattern and magnificent flowers, a generous amount of fertilizer should be used &#8211; overfertilization is almost impossible.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9096\" src=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/angel-trampet-fetlizing.jpg\" alt=\"angel trampet fetlizing\" width=\"750\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/angel-trampet-fetlizing.jpg 750w, https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/angel-trampet-fetlizing-300x180.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Propagate\"><\/span>Propagate<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Angel trumpets can be propagated by seeds as well as by cuttings. However, the way via cuttings is the easier way and therefore better suited for beginners. In the following, we will tell you how to propagate your favorite trumpets.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sow_angel_trumpet_seeds\"><\/span>Sow angel trumpet seeds<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If you want to propagate your trumpet plant via seeds, you can collect them from the flowers and dry them over the winter. Be careful with hybrid varieties: you never know what characteristics the new plants will develop. However, the seeds can also be easily purchased from specialist shops.<\/p>\n<p>For sowing, the seeds must first be soaked in water for 24 hours and can then be converted into growing soil. Always keep the soil warm and moist afterward. You can also cover the containers with glass or transparent foil, but make sure to air them regularly to prevent mold. The germination period can vary between a few weeks and 2 months, depending on the variety and season.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9097\" src=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/angel-trumpet-seeds.jpg\" alt=\"angel trumpet seeds\" width=\"750\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/angel-trumpet-seeds.jpg 750w, https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/angel-trumpet-seeds-300x180.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Propagate_angel_trumpet_through_cuttings\"><\/span>Propagate angel trumpet through cuttings<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The propagation of angel trumpets via cuttings is possible all summer long. To do this, simply cut pieces of about 10 cm in size from the crown of the tree, remove the lowest leaves and dip the stems about 4 cm deep into the growing earth. Keep the cuttings in semi-shade at about 20\u00b0C and moisten the soil without creating stagnant moisture.<\/p>\n<p>After 3 &#8211; 4 weeks enough roots should have formed so that the cuttings can be repotted. However, the cuttings can also be used as cuttings in the late year and overwintered together with the mother plant. In spring, enough roots should have formed in this way.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Angel_Trumpet_Hibernates_Is_The_Trumpet_Plant_Hardy\"><\/span>Angel Trumpet Hibernates: Is The Trumpet Plant Hardy?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Angel trumpets are not hardy. This is also the reason why these beautiful ornamental plants are mainly kept in tubs. The angel trumpet can also be planted directly in the garden, but this makes the wintering process a bit more complicated. As a potted plant, the trumpet plant can easily be moved to a suitable wintering location, such as a garage or cellar.<\/p>\n<p>Make sure the minimum temperature is around 10\u00b0C. In addition, water your Angel Trumpet only about once a week in winter and avoid too much moisture. To prevent fungal infestation, sufficient ventilation should also be ensured.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9093\" src=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Wear-gloves-when-cutting-the-Brugmansia.jpg\" alt=\"Wear gloves when cutting the Brugmansia\" width=\"750\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Wear-gloves-when-cutting-the-Brugmansia.jpg 750w, https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Wear-gloves-when-cutting-the-Brugmansia-300x180.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Are_Angel_Trumpets_Poisonous\"><\/span>Are Angel Trumpets Poisonous?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Angel trumpets belong to the nightshade family and, like many other plants in this group, contain poisonous alkaloids. This problem applies to all parts of the plant, which is why gloves should be worn when cutting back and contact with food should be avoided.<\/p>\n<p>The plant should also not be eaten. In some cultures, Brugmansia is also used as an intoxicant, as it is said to cause hallucinations and an ecstatic state. However, since the wrong dosage can also lead to symptoms of poisoning in this case, it is also not recommended.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Common_Diseases_And_Pests_Of_The_Angel_Trumpet\"><\/span>Common Diseases And Pests Of The Angel Trumpet<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Particularly the rather more sensitive kinds of the angel trumpet are susceptible to virus or fungal diseases.
