Belle Amour was imported from Germany 12-12-07. Will come out of quarantine 12-12-09. A Monika Gottschalk creation.
Belle Amour is a very pretty pink in color and appears to shimmer....almost a mother-of-pearl-type over-lay, making her a very special brug, with a special look.
This brug produces the best frangrance of any brug I've ever grew. Adapted well not only to our sub-tropical heat, but a freak snow storm as well. My Department of Agriculture Inspector, Toby didn't think any of my brugs would live after all the winter/snow damage. I lost some special brugs from the states and some imports but most returned.
I will share one rooted cutting of B.A. to the first person who posts on this thread. I can't ship until Toby releases B.A. from quarantine sometime after 12-12-09.

Belle Amour should do great for you in PA, Kim. And yes, she is a very beautiful German brug that I have been very blessed to grow.

Dollie, you certainly have a winner there! I especially like your comment on it's fragrance. Please post a phot when she opens all the way.
Dollie, you certainly have some pretty "HOT" brugs !
Congrats, and happy growing! ♥
Oh my what a STUNNING brug! I would love to be the owner of that!
just out of curiosity, where is everyone purchasing ther 'German' brugs from? I woudnt even know where to look
Thanks Daisy !
I think Nadine has forwarned you of a possible disappearance of your soon to be Belle Amour....you might want to keep a close watch on our buddy Nadine ;)
Elva, I'll get you a cutting started....just email to remind me on shipping after 12-12-09.
Betty, I'd love to take the credit for Belle Amour but she is Monika's creation. I enjoy growing her and hope to have some crosses from her one day. When I get more blooms on B.A. I'll post a photo of her in full bloom. Above photo is about two weeks old.
Teresa & Hollyhocklady thank you both for the comments.....and I agree Belle Amour is stunning and one hot brug ;)
Cue, Alice Harris of Karchesky Cannas may have Belle Amour for sale on her website. If not this brug, I know Alice sells other German brugmansia's from Monika Gottschalk's collection. Here is a link to her website:

You can also contact Monika about how to import her brugs from Germany.
Wow, what a stunner she is! You have a real prize there. Karen
She is absolutely devine!! I know you are proud of her.
She is a real show stopper.
Thanks so much Dolly
Stunning! My want list keeps getting longer. :)
She is gorgeous. You did a great job with her !
Belle Amour is really a treasure to grow and I'm looking forward to sharing cuttings of her with some of you.
Karen, Rides, Molly, & Lenette thank you for your compliments.
