Tropicals & Tender Perennials: Great Brug Reference Book, 1 by Kell

I agree John. It is a great book to have in your library especially if you are a brug fancier! I know I bought it as soon as it was published. I can never get enough information and pictures of Brugmansia.

I found though after reading both brug books out there, that Monika's book ( Engelstrompeten) really shows you how to be a successful brug grower. When I think of all she has in her book that we all have copied. How she prunes, (she has clear pictures of how to do it), of how she makes her famous alley trees that we all lust after and try to emulate but never capture, and how to plant your tree in a 5 gallon pot in the ground so you can pull it up to winter over. And her explicit directions on wintering over. Hard to beat for its practical use! And the pictures, well we all know Monika's pictures! And of course her renowned alley is displayed in its full glory!

But most of all I just get such a kick out of knowing she comes to this forum to share her love and knowledge of brugmansia with us all. How cool is that? We can actually read her book and if we are unclear on something we can actually ask her about it.

My copy of her book is autographed! LOL LOL Too cool, don't you think?
