On request from Chrissy I have opened the spring edition of this forum.

This thread follows on from previous Brugmansia discussion here in Australia (winter).

Open to all with passion, questions and the tales of Brug lore here "Down Under"! :)

Enjoy!

A starter...
Brugmansia Old Sydney Apricot for want of another name.
Our original plant was from Bronte House, in Sydney. Grown several years back here at "Flora". Sadly, this lovely plant was victim to frost a few years back. R.I.P.

This plant along with the old double white gives me the benchmark for my desire in growing excellent garden varieties here in Australia.

Let's talk, exchange ideas and above all ask questions!

My love of Brugs goes back to childhood. My qulafications are in Horticulture, Park Management and Disability Service Training and Support (Psyc/Int.).

I leave any discussion of "Brug Science" to the wonderfully quallified Alistair.

Here goes! :)
