As is unfortunately too often the case you have datura rather than brugs. Last seeds I ordered on ebay were also misnamed.

Datura flowers are upward facing , brugs, hang down.

You can overwinter them-not recommended-or do cuttings-they root easily in water.

Or you can let the last flowers set seed and start over next year-that's what I would do.

Cut the flowers as soon as they begin to fade, otherwise it will stop flowering.

I did cuttings from B. Miner's Claim this spring, will take a pic and post.

I started one cutting in water the other in soil. The one in water rooted much more rapidly but the one in soil caught up fast.

Brugs grow fast but will probably not bloom until Sept.

Well, Dave, that stinks. I ordered the seed from Park Seed, so I would have thought they would have put the right seed in the right package. I should complain to them!! Well, anyway, the flowers still look like they will be splendiferous! Thanks for the tips.

One last thing. Daturas do fine just seeded out in the garden and those dbl., upward facing flowers are great.

Park's seems to have contributed to buyer confusion by promoting its seeds as "Angel's Trumpets" (a term that can apply to either Datura or Brugmansia), leading some to assume they're getting Brugmansias. Park's website explains the difference but only mentions their seed is of Daturas in small type on the separate order page:

This is yet another example of the perils of relying on common names for plants and assuming that buyers are turned off by (or are too stupid to handle) botanical (Latin) nomenclature.

Brugmansia seed is fairly easy to grow but not readily available from commercial sources. Plant societies or groups of Brugmansia enthusiasts (i.e. on Facebook) are potential sources of seed and cuttings. I have about a dozen seed-grown plants that are about 6-8 inches high and likely won't flower until next year.

Datura is a great plant, though. It has this dark, gothic side to it as its common name of Devil's Trumpet indicates (flowers point up rather than down as on the Angel's Trumpets of Brugmansia). I have this smaller flowered purple one this year which I am loving, but it's not very floriferous at the moment.

Hey green_go, when is a good time to try to get brug cuttings? Planning for next season...

Like greengo, I have reduced my brugmansia plants. Here they need to be dug up and wintered over inside. Now I have only one variegated plant.

Cuttings are shared in the fall when the plant is cut back. Many sites including e-bay sell cuttings and plants. The brugmansia forum is not as active as previously. Maybe check Facebook. Some growers will share cuttings for postage.
