Care Angel's trumpet
The Angel's trumpet has a shrub- like development. These plants have a sapling deportment, with a short stem with a small roundish crown. The Angel's trumpet is medium in size and 3 m in height; in the spring it assumes a white colouring. These plants aren't evergreens, which means they lose their leaves some months during the year.

Temperatures Angel's trumpetPosizione mezza ombra
We suggest locating this plant in a partially shady place, where it is exposed to direct sunlight during the coolest hours of the day. The Angel's trumpet can bear minimum temperatures a few degrees below zero; in general during the Spring it would be grown outdoors without any problems, but if the harsh temperatures should go down it is advised to cover it with non-woven fabric.To prevent damage caused by the cold temperatures, during the months with definately harsh minimum temperatures, we can protect the shrubs by covering the soil around the stem with straw or dry leaves.

Irrigation Angel's trumpetTenere Umido
The Angel's trumpet needs to be watered quite frequently, every 2-3 weeks ; if there are abundant rains we can diminish watering, which should be done only when the soil is dry. The suggested quantity is 1-2 buckets of water . If we want to grow these plants in a vase, we should water them a bit more often, compared to plants cultivated in the ground; Every 2-3 years we should renew the substratum in the vase, or enrich with organic amender.

Adversity Angel's trumpet
Generally during this time of year we suggest a pre-emptive treatment with wide range insecticide and with a systemic fungicide, to prevent the attack from part of the aphids and the development of fungus diseases, often favoured by a mild and damp climate.

Substrate Angel's trumpet
These plants are planted in a soft, but quite heavy, and not excessively drained soil.
