My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Help in Overwintering

17 years ago

Hi all!

New here. And new to Brugs. My wife and I bought some Brugs as 8" plants at a farmer's market. All of our other Angel Trumpets have minimal if any fragrance, but this one is VERY fragrant - sweet and a spicy/floral. The flowers are golden orange-yellow and about 10-12" long. The plants are now about 4 feet tall. I have never tried to overwinter these plants, but we're going to take this one and it's mate (not in the same place) out of the ground, remove the leaves, and plant in separate planters, keep in a closet, water once a month.

So - does anyone how best to overwinter? We REALLY do not want to lose these plants with their AMAZING fragrance!
