An opportunity to purchase a rare Brugmansia Vulsa (Vulcanicola Zunac 4 x Sanguinea) flowering a deep red with slight yellow having parentage from both Sanguinea and Vulcanicola. This plant is propagated from our only stock plant grown from seed from BGI. Vulcanicola are found in Columbia in regions of high altitude and even there only isolated plants are found. Growth habit is that of a small tree up to 14 feet tall. The calyx is split one to three times. Leaves are very small with very few hairs and are smooth and shiny growing from 3 ½ inches to 4 inches long. The corolla is tube shaped from 6 to 8 ½ inches. The widest point of the corolla tube is 1". The tubular-shaped flowers are the smallest of allBrugmansia at only 15 to 22 cm (6 to 9 in). Flower life is from 5 to 8 days. Color is green at the base, red in the middle, eventually becoming yellow at the mouth. Fruit is oval shaped and over 5" long with the surface being wrinkled and warty. The vulcanicola is considered to be difficult to grow in hot climates preferring higher altitudes with cooler climates. Vulcanicola may be crossbred with B. arborea, B. X flava, B. sanguinea, and by other vulcanicola.This plant comes from higher elevations than typical Brugmansias, so it used to mild daytime temperatures, and nights that are cool. Temperatures above the 23°C can inhibit flowering, and the plant might decline if temperatures are consistently above 30°C, especially if nights are warm.Flowers: October to June
