Took delivery of three Brugmansia plants today. Now potted on into 5" pots in g'house.
Anyone got experience of these and can offer any tips.
I do know some things about them but have never grown them myself.

Well I don't know what you paid for them but the seeds are dear enough !! They'll be mouth gaupingly spectacular when out SP. As for growing them, I grew Angel's Trumpets once with no problem so they must be easy  ps what colour are they? |

Lots of heat....lots of water......lots of feed......lots of beautiful blooms....oh.....and they can get pretty tall....keep 'em out of the wind  ...apart from that....easy  ....Oh and they can suffer from red spider mite......  |

One white, one pink and one Yellow.
I knew about the RSM Lou and will be keeping an eye on them
not sure about heat though as only a COLD g'house.
One other thing I have learned about them is that they like plenty of root space not potbound.
I may try them in the ground in back enclosed yard but will see.
