Gita and Sally, thank you for trying to grow a Maya for me :-). I LOVE their variegated leaves.

Gita, this website has some information on brug problems http://www.trumpetflowers.com/plant-pathology/brugmansia-lea... Does any of them look like the one with yours?

My brug cuttings are kept in the apartment this year. So far they are bug free, probably because I am on the 11th floor :o). However, I only noticed in the past week or so that many leaves are getting spots. They are not completely brown in color and are not always on the leaf tips. Leaves with this problem fall off well before the spots progress to the entire leaves.

This problem looks a bit like the 2nd photo on the website above. I will bring back some fungicide with me next week and see if that might help.

The cuttings are healthy otherwise. One of them even has a flower bud :o).
