I have been on this forum for an hour plus....you guys are great!!! I am generally on Perennials, Rock Garden, Roses....but I bought my first Brug in June and definitely have some questions. I am so glad to have found y'all....you seem to be such a nice, and knowledgable bunch....not to mention Funny!!!! :o)

1st question - do these plants usually "Y" and bloom the first year? I bought mine from Brugmansias.com and have been watering, and fertilizing as the instructions said....first all the leaves promptly fell off.....but they then grew back, and it started to get taller, and then nothing......did I start with this plant to late this season to expect blooms this year, or do they bloom later on like Sept.....
