Brugmansia Sanguinea

Description

Brugmansia sanguinea is a breathtaking Angel’s Trumpet species known for its fiery-colored, downward-facing blooms. Native to the high-altitude regions of South America, it displays long, flared flowers with striking red and orange tones, often accented by delicate yellow-green veining. Unlike its highly fragrant relatives, B. sanguinea relies on hummingbirds rather than moths for pollination, making it a fantastic choice for wildlife-friendly gardens.

This cool-climate Brugmansia thrives in rich, well-drained soil with regular watering, preferring temperatures below those of its tropical counterparts. Hardy in USDA zones 8-10, it benefits from some frost protection in colder areas but can be grown in containers and brought indoors during winter. With its exotic, flame-like flowers and lush green foliage, Brugmansia sanguinea offers a dramatic, eye-catching display, making it a must-have for collectors and those seeking a unique garden showpiece.
