It&#8217;s almost 5 feet tall now, and would no doubt be happier if it got more summer sun. After the fall equinox, when the sun begins to shine on the south side of the house, the brugmansia produces its first flowers of the season. I&#8217;d like to move it, as it is strangled by two climbing roses and a hyacinth bean vine. I&#8217;ll try to root some more cuttings instead. (Wow, having a better camera than I did two years ago is nice, too.)<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/www.zanthan.com\/gardens\/photos\/320\/Brugmansia5.jpg\" alt=\"photo: Brugmansia 20041029\" width=\"320px\"\/><br \/><i>2004-10-29.

I took a cutting right before a hard freeze two years ago and rooted it. After my third attempt to root a cutting, I planted a 18 inch tall plant in the winter garden on October 1, 2000. It has died back two winters, but survived. This year it grew to about 3 feet tall. It suffers terribly in the summer heat and from grasshoppers and beetles munching on the leaves. This is the first time it has had a number of flowers, and the first flower to survive the bugs long enough to open.<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/www.zanthan.com\/gardens\/photos\/320\/Brugmansia1.jpg\" alt=\"photo: Brugmansia 20021116\" width=\"320px\"\/><br \/><i>2002-11-16.
