This is what happened to my Red Brugmansia sanguinea. I was evacuated for two weeks from the Santiago Canyon fires. My poor plants went through the terrible winds, and then drought for two weeks. When I got home - this particular brug didnt lose its leaves like my other ones did - instead it is leaning and I cant get it to stand upright. It used to stand easily over 10 - 12 feet tall. I noticed it was starting to lean, but now I dont think I can ever get it to stand upright. Is this ok? Can I just leave it like that? Is ther something I have been doing wrong?

PS - I have had this brug for 3 years, and it bloomed one bloom this past spring - could it be that it doesnt like where it lives?
