Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Vibrant, deep orange, tubular flowers emerge in clusters all along the stems during the summer-to-fall blooming season. Iochromas are in the same family as brugmansias and are often called 'Mini Angel's Trumpets." Grow in full fun with plenty of water and fertilizer during the growing season to maintain continuous flowering. Iochromas are hummingbird magnets, so they make ideal plants for people interested in creating a bird watcher's garden.
