I have put it in my insulated barn in the winter and tried to keep it just above freezing. It seams to go dormant. I'm not too worried about the toxicity but maybe I should be. Which is more toxic the angels trumpet or the castor beans? I have lots of castor bean plants. They come up voluntary. Right now I'm more concerned about the big water moccasin I saw in the yard today when I heard a frog screaming in its mouth it had caught. I was wondering where all the frogs had gone? I used to have lots of frogs but now not so many.
I guess i do! Didnt know i did until today. Wouldn't have looked to see it if the frog screaming hadn't made me look. I guess ill have to go find it. I cant risk it biting my friends or family. Ordering snake boots.
sorry for the poor picture but this nonpoisonous snake is very fast. We have lots of these pretty snakes. They are blue with a white stripe. I'm not sure what it is but I saw three mowing the grass.
I think this is the same type of nonpoisonous snake but the colors are different. I think the blue snakes are prettier. My point is we have lots of snakes but thankfully most are not poisonous and i dont bother them. I do wish they wouldnt eat all the frogs
The East Ruston Old Vicarage Garden had two massive potted Brugmansias when we visited in October 2021...so beautiful. Presumably they move them into the greenhouses over quite a few years judging on the trunks they've developed

This is Alan's episode on Brugmansias. East Ruston is famous for them. Alan gives detail on how he nurtures them. He feeds them a very rich diet. From about min 2.30 to min 13. Get Dirty is a wonderful podcast to follow.
