Last summer I purchased a angel trumpet plant. I live in Zone 5 so I had to bring the plant inside for the winter. Now it has lost most of its leaves. Does anyone know if it will revive in the spring ?

Unfortunately it's hard to give a 100% for sure answer on that--a lot depends on what caused it to lose its leaves in the first place. If it was just some temporary shock from being brought indoors then it should recover, but there are other things such as exposure to too much cold before it came in or overwatering/root rot which it may or may not recover from depending on how badly damaged it was in the process. So I'd sit back and be patient--keep it in the house and make sure you only water when it's dry a few inches down in the pot, keep it away from cold drafts or heat vents blowing directly on it, and don't fertilize it at least until it has recovered and put out some new growth.
