A striking ornamental shrub with dramatic, pendulous red flowers
Brugmansia sanguinea, commonly known as the Red Angel's Trumpet, is a striking ornamental shrub or small tree native to the Andean regions of South America. This distinctive member of the Solanaceae family features pendulous, trumpet-shaped flowers in vibrant red to orange-red hues, often with yellow margins.
The plant develops a woody, tree-like structure that can reach heights of 3-5 meters (10-16 feet) in optimal conditions. Its large, elliptical leaves provide an attractive dark green backdrop for the dramatic blooms. Unlike other Brugmansia species that release their fragrance at night, Brugmansia sanguinea produces minimal scent but compensates with exceptionally vivid coloration.
This species offers exceptional ornamental value with its striking visual impact and architectural presence. With its relatively manageable care requirements, Brugmansia sanguinea serves as a dramatic focal point in appropriate landscape settings, bringing exotic, tropical aesthetics to temperate garden environments.
Prepare a germination medium consisting of equal parts peat moss and perlite, or use a specialized seed-starting mix. Light, well-draining composition is essential for successful seed germination.
Plant seeds on the surface of the moistened medium, pressing lightly to ensure contact without burying. Maintain consistent bottom heat of 20-24°C (68-75°F) for optimal germination conditions.
Cover the planting container with clear plastic to maintain high humidity levels. Maintain consistent moisture without saturating the medium; mist regularly to prevent drying. Germination typically begins within 3-4 weeks but may extend to 8 weeks.
Place in bright, indirect light with consistent bottom heat. Remove plastic covering gradually once germination occurs to prevent damping off. Provide adequate air circulation to maintain plant health.
Seedlings: Bright, indirect light for optimal development. Mature Plants: Partial sun with protection from intense afternoon exposure. Provide 6+ hours of light daily for robust growth.
Maintain consistent moisture without waterlogging. Allow slight drying between waterings during cooler months. Red Angel's Trumpet requires regular watering during the growing season to support vigorous growth and flowering.
Use rich, well-draining soil with pH 6.0-7.0. Incorporate organic matter to improve soil structure and fertility. Ensure excellent drainage to prevent root rot, which is detrimental to this species.
Apply diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer every 2-3 weeks during growing season. Use a formulation with balanced NPK ratios (e.g., 5-5-5 or 10-10-10). Reduce fertilization during dormant periods.
Carefully transfer to individual containers when seedlings develop 2-3 true leaves. Handle roots gently to minimize disturbance. Use light, well-draining potting soil composed of rich organic matter.
Shield from temperatures below 5°C (41°F); young plants are particularly vulnerable to frost. The Red Angel's Trumpet offers superior cold tolerance compared to other Brugmansia varieties, suitable for temperate zones with mild winters.
