They hate the heat, Elva. They especially want cool nights.

Too bad Mary, but it is my limited experience that they get so virused esp with other brugs near them. I have a friend in Cananda who grows lots of sangs and she has to toss them every 2 to 3 years because of them getting virused. I think the way to grow them is to only have 1 brugmansia, that being the sang and bring not another in to contaminate it.

Here was a pink Vulcanicola. Always a treat to see even if it too was virused. I seem to recall this one is the smallest diameter corolla tube in the brug world.
