Brugmansia versicolor, commonly known as Angel’s Trumpet, is an evergreen shrub or small tree native to the cloud forests of Ecuador. It typically grows to a height of 3.0–4.9 m (10–16 ft). The plant features large, elliptic to oblong leaves with smooth edges arranged alternately on the stems. One of its most striking features is the giant, pendulous flowers that resemble trumpets, which is the origin of its common name. The flowers are the largest among Brugmansia species, measuring 300–510 mm (12–20 in) in length. They bloom initially white and may age to shades of peach, pink, apricot, or remain white. The flowering season is not strictly defined, as the plant can produce blooms several times a year, particularly in warmer climates.

Angel’s Trumpet is celebrated for its dramatic, oversized flowers and is often used as a focal point in tropical and subtropical gardens. It requires a partially shaded to fully sunlit location, thriving in fertile, well-drained soils with average humidity. While it can tolerate temperatures slightly below freezing, frost can cause damage. The plant benefits from regular watering, especially during dry periods. Propagation is commonly achieved through stem cuttings, and it can also grow from seeds, though it does not self-pollinate. In cultivation, it is important to note that all parts of Brugmansia versicolor are toxic if ingested, and care should be taken to plant it away from areas frequented by children and pets.CC BY-SA 4.0
