Growing Instructions:

  • Sunlight: Provide your Angel's Trumpet with full to partial sun exposure for optimal growth and abundant flowering.
  • Soil: Ensure well-draining, fertile soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH level. Angel's Trumpet thrives in soil rich in organic matter.
  • Propagation: Propagate Angel's Trumpet through stem cuttings or seeds. Stem cuttings are commonly used, taken from the plant in late spring or early summer. Plant them in a well-prepared potting mix, keeping them consistently moist until they establish roots.
  • Germination: If growing from seeds, germination can take several weeks. Plant the seeds in a seed-starting mix and maintain consistent moisture and warmth until seedlings emerge.
  • Spacing: When planting Angel's Trumpet in your garden, ensure adequate spacing of 3 to 6 feet between plants to allow for their mature size and sprawling growth habit.
  • Pruning: Prune the plant as needed to maintain its shape and size, and remove dead or damaged branches. Be cautious with pruning, as all parts of the plant are toxic if ingested.
  • Winter Care: In regions with cold winters, provide protection by overwintering the plant indoors or covering it with frost cloth to prevent cold damage.
  • Blooming Period: Angel's Trumpet typically blooms from late spring to fall, producing an abundance of fragrant flowers that add a touch of elegance and charm to your garden.
  • Caution: Handle Angel's Trumpet with care, as all parts of the plant are toxic if ingested and can cause skin irritation.
  • Soil: rich, humous, loamy and well-drained with regular moisture.
  • Start seeds indoors about 6 to 8 weeks before last spring frost. Set plants out after last frost date. Plants tend to sprawl, and are best spaced about 3ft apart unless staking or other support will be necessary.
  • Container plants may be cut back and overwintered indoors in a sunny window.
  • Deadheading flowers is not necessary.
  • Harvest ripe seed for planting in the following spring. Place in paper bag, set aside and shake. Store in a cool dark place until use. Self-seeding may occur if seed heads are not cut.
