ANGEL TRUMPETS


These are my friend's Angel Trumpets!
These pics are dated last October.
Of course, hers are large and live
outside year around. Just die down in
in winter and come back in Spring!
I think they are mighty pretty!

Beautiful Angel Trumpets, Jaycee! Mine haven't bloomed yet this year.

I’ve got one of the peachy-pink ones. It gets HUGE. Usually about 8 feet tall and about 12 wide. It is loaded with fragrant blooms, sometimes a hundred or more at a time. They only last a day and they make beautiful cut flowers but they don’t last any time at all. I’ve got a bunch of yellow ones at work. Think I’m going to bring one of those and a Confederate Rose home and put in the same bed with my A.T. and my marijuana leaf hibiscus, otherwise known as Texas star.

Flower ping :)

Mine are white. I have seen peach, yellow & pink ones and they are gorgeous. I have a few times “forgotten” one of the angel trumpets & it is very dead.. Even a heavy frost zaps them. They are huge & a pain (in more ways than one) to haul inside in Fall. I use a truck dolly as they are very heavy in the huge pots. I have to top them (cuttings for more to give away) They are about 12 feet high.

They are a fun plant. Wish I had my green house still . It was quite handy in NC for wintering over plants
