Hi kcbronc;
Brugmansias likes cooler climate to grow and flourish. Overwintering them indoor needs the essentials. Moisture to root (relative humidity to the air and adequate circulation - I've a box fan that I use 24/7 in my basement). Light (doesn't matter what type of light - I use ordinary shop florescent light and it works, with reduced cost).
Best wishes.

Note: light is very important, small cuttings will wither away quickly without adequate light. I keep mine on 12 on/off. The bigger, established ones continue to blooms during this time of year. Our zones should be similiar.
