There are varieties with white, yellow, salmon and orange flowers, ranging in size from 20 to 50 cmSome varieties have a bushy habit
Plants quickly grow to colossal sizes.They take the form of shrubs or trees.
Brugmansje like sunny places, but not too hot.The conditions are favorable in semi-shaded places.In the afternoon hours, plants should not be exposed to direct sunlight, because then they transpire quickly through large leaves and quickly wither.
Brugmansje has a very high demand for water and nutrients.Therefore, in summer, they should be fed weekly with liquid fertilizer.Additionally, at the beginning of the season, they can be fed with a portion of long-acting fertilizer.In summer, daily watering is necessary, on hot days, in the morning and in the evening. To keep the plants in the desired shape, they should be trimmed in late winter.
At the end of the season, saplings lose their leaves. Thanks to this, they can be hibernated in a place where it is moderately bright and the temperature remains at 5-15 ° C.
Datura flowers fully open in the late afternoon.Then they also exude a pleasant, sweet scent. Good for lounge corners.
Watch out for naked snails. Mollusks of this species like to nibble on soft Datura leaves.
