QuestionQUESTION: I just bought two white and two yellow datura plants. I live in a s.w.suburb of Chicago. How can I overwinter them?
I also bought a trumpet angel plant - same question.
ANSWER: Hi Sandra, you would have to cut them back and pot them up; do so in a container big enough to hold their root system, then bring them indoors for the Winter; they are tropical by nature, and do not go dormant, so you really can't leave them to their own devices in your Chicago Winter. Nick

QUESTION: How severley should I cut them back? Should I keep them in a sunny window and how often should I water them?
AnswerCut them back to about half of their present size, leaving enough leaves to keep them viable, yet small enough to handle and put in a container; and yes, put them near a window where they will get ample light. Water them when the soil begins to dry out. Nick
