I live in Cheshire and have spent the last four years creating my garden which didn't have a single plant in it when I moved in!

Brugmansia 'Lemon Meringue'

I moved into the greenhouse about 10 days ago as I wasn't sure what the weather was going to do. It will stay in there now it's very sheltered at the back but I do have a small paraffin I might use if it gets frosty 😊 @angiecrazycatlady

I really want one of these and plan to get one in the spring. My greenhouse is unheated so I'm hoping I will be able to keep it there. I will be watching out for lots of pics of your one in the summer 😄😊😆

Angie this is my first time growing a brug and I'm following strict instruction from @drnicko as that's where this young plant came from and I'm terrified of losing it 😂 @angiecrazycatlady 😊

Yay, thanks @drnicko 😊😊 Should I still keep feeding it?

Yes Mo but less and less, taper it down...matched with the weather and what your climate in greenhouse is like. Under 10'c the growth will slow, nearing 5'c and plant wants to be dormant. Then just keep soil barely moist. Dec/Jan/Feb I don't fertilise 👍😎
