It put on a spectacular show this winter and I think it's starting to die down now. I haven't trimmed any branches, which I know I am supposed to do. Problem is, every time I go outside to choose branches to cut, they have flower buds on them. I am supposed to be trimming the older branches so that the tree will grow bushier. A few months ago, it was very busy. In February of this year, it was the most pathetic little bush you'd ever seen.

Brugmansia in December in Florida
So, back in Auguest, I noticed the first blooms on the brugmansia (Angel's trumpet) I planted from seed a few years ago.

I am glad that you posted your Brugmansia as a large photo, which I really enjoy to look at. Good that you grew this one from seeds, because the shape of the flowers looks so unique.
