What is the best time to propagate cuttings?
It's always best to take cuttings early in the morning, when the parent plant is still turgid, i.e. full of water. This guarantees the best chance of rooting.
What is best fertilizer for Brugmansia?
The type of fertilizer for brugmansia depends upon the time of development. During initial growth, use a balanced fertilizer such as a 20-20-20. By the time buds begin to form, alternate with one higher in phosphorus to promote bigger, lustier blooms.
How long do cuttings take to root in water?
Several cuttings may be placed together in one container. Be sure to add fresh water as needed until the cuttings are fully rooted. Rooting will generally occur in 3-4 weeks but some plants will take longer. When the roots are 1-2 inches long or longer the cutting is ready to be potted up.

Feed weekly from late spring onwards with a high-potassium fertiliser, such as tomato feed. Water copiously throughout the growing season. It may be too small – most brugmansias need to reach a certain size before flowering.
How do you get Brugmansia to bloom?
It is best with brugmansia to use a liquid-based fertilizer, rather than a slow-release fertilizer during the active growth period. This is because a slow-release fertilizer may not release enough nutrients to the plant to enable it to have the energy to produce blossoms.
