Looking For Brugmansia Cuttings Again

Recommended Posts

Hi - I am looking For Brugmansia Cuttings Again - I got some cuttings from a member last year but the frost killed it. I have bought some seed for Brugmansia sanguinea and will be germinating those in a grow tent until summer. Then into pots outside and inside over winter until it gets big enough to survive the frost.

 

I am in Victoria, so I am looking for cold hardy varieties.

 

If you have any cuttings available please let me know happy to trade cacti or cash.

the sanguinea is very frost hardy, surviving even in scotland and england very well. the yellow flower that looks like a sanguinea is as well very frost hardy, but i don't remeber it's name now, it's very rare, never seen it in oz.....

all the others are more sensitive to the cold.

@withdrawl clinic I think you are thinking about Flava the yellow sanguinea - believed to be a subspecies.

 

Yes that is why I opted for the sanguinea, its also the one the Hoffmann references in his books.

 

It is a shame sanguinea does not have a scent or a strong scent fro what I have read.

 

It seems easy to grow and the one white flower brugmansia I had was doing great and then bang dead from the cold.

 

The other one I have heard to cold tolerant is Brugmansia vulcanicola, but again rare.
