Brugmansia Stock Photography

Brugmansia are large shrubs or small trees, with semi-woody, often many-branched trunks. They can reach heights of 3–11 m 10–36 ft. The leaves are alternately arranged along the stems, generally large, 10–30 cm 4–12 in long and 4–18 cm 2–7 in across, with an entire or coarsely toothed margin, and are often covered with fine hairs. The name `angel`s trumpet` refers to the large, pendulous, trumpet-shaped flowers, 14–50 cm 6–20 in long and 10–35 cm 4–14 in across at the opening. They come in shades of white, yellow, pink, orange, green, or red. Most have a strong, pleasing fragrance that is most noticeable in the evening. Flowers may be single, double, or more.
