Our friends Chrystal and Richard had a big shrub of this plant in a pot that they moved outside in the spring and back into the garage nearby in Shoreline in the fall\/winter. They would cut the plant back and put the stems in water to root them. I took several of those branches off their hands and rooted them in soil and grew them on. That was probably at least 12 years ago. I took cuttings and had half a dozen Brugsmansias at one point. They take up a lot of room and need a lot of fertilizer, so I whittled my collection down to this one plant. Here are photos of it from over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
