About Brugmansia insignis (Barb.Rodr.) Lockwood ex R.E.Schult.
Brugmansia insignis (Barb.Rodr.) Lockwood ex R.E.Schult. are shrubs or small trees that grow to a height of 3 to 4 meters (10 to 13 feet). They produce large, nodding, funnel-shaped flowers that range in color from white to pink. Their flower shape is very similar to that of Brugmansia suaveolens, but they can be told apart by two features: the corolla margin of B. insignis is 3 to 6 cm (1.2 to 2.4 in) long, and B. insignis has a very narrow, extra long tubular extension at the base of the flower corolla that is even longer than the same structure in B. suaveolens. This species is endemic to the upper Amazon region, at the eastern base of the Andes mountains of Peru. All parts of Brugmansia insignis are poisonous.
