With the past winter being as bad as it was, I lost my Brugmansia 'Versicolor'!!! Originally I thought I could simply replace it with some other plant, but I really cannot replace it!!! I really do miss it and would like to get my hands on another one or two. If ANY of you grow these and would be willing to part with a few cuttings, I would truly appreciate it.
As you can see by the picture below, they are wonderful additions to the garden. Please someone contact me and help me out!!!
Thanks in advance!!!

I have Inca Sun right now. It looks like versicolor peach but it doesn't get as tall and it sets more blooms. Same fragrance. They're 7.99 on my website.

Thanks Sandy... Have seen Inca Sun before and it is a beautiful brug. Worry though that it might not be as hardy being rated a zone 9. A bit smaller than what I am looking for too. Again, thanks for your response!

I have 3 AT's right now.
A yellow one, pink, and either white or double white(yet to flower)
Got them from Jimmmy this year.
I know it's not the one you are looking for but if your interested let me know.
I can send cuttings of the 3 if you have something to trade for =]
I too am also looking for as many of these plants as I can find.
so please keep us updated if you come across a find.

I just picked up a variegated AT today. It is flowering but none are open yet.
This thing was a steal at 10 bucks growing well in a 5 or so gallon pot.
I did not know they came variegated cant wait to see the blooms.

I had two different varieties of variegated brugs last summer. They performed well, but not as strong as regular brugs. They did not overwinter for me outside, so if you grow them and you are located in 7b or cooler, you may want to take cuttings for next season! Best of luck with them...
I also wanted to thank you for the offer, but I have pink, yellow, white. I do appreciate the offer, though...

Randy,
Have you found your variegated brugs? Barnercora’s thread shows that she or he has a variety of Brugmansia cuttings available. It is hard to tell whether they are the ones you’re looking for, but you can contact Barnercora to find out for sure.

Thanks Rae, but I am not looking for any variegated brugs. I really prefer the hardier varieties with no variegation. The versicolor I thought I lost sent up a stem or two late in the summer and I now have about 4 cuttings that are spending the winter in greenhouse so I should be in good shape. I will check out your link and see what barnercora has that I that I may give a try... Thanks again and hope you are doing well...
