Good morning all (:
My husband bought me this brugmansia about 8 weeks ago. It was very healthy looking and had lots of peach and cream blooms. I have never grown a brugmansia before but I'm not sure where I went wrong. There are no insects on it but I do see some white spots on the branches. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks, Annette
Here is a close-up shot.
oh.. Annette... did you get the forever flowering gaurantee with it...
it's likely adjusting to it's new home..light levels and such.. it looks ok to me.. areyou feeding it alot.. every three or 4 days... that will help.. as till spraying it and keeping it cool.. it's got plenty of new growth comming..
it looks like you're doing well.. aside from it dropping leaves .. andthatworst condition of all.. it's stopped flowering...
this is a good reason right here.. why one should hav 4 or FIVE dozen brugs.. [ MIN ]
it totallyTAKES YOUR ATTENTION AWAY FROM THINGS LIKE THIS.. AND WORSE
In addition to what Gordon said Brugs need a lot of water and should not go dry. They can be overwatered so make sure the plant is growing. In very hot weather, they appreciate shade in the afternoon. Just to emphasize the importance of fertilizer, I'll say it as well. Fertilize with a liquid fertilizer every 3 or 4 days. Brugs
Thank you Betty and Gordon for your advice. I guess I don't have to worry so much now. I'm going to try and make up some of the liquid fertilizer that's been mentioned on this forum.
Have a great weekend ('',)
