Where can I plant Angel trumpets and plums?
I was recently given about 5 angel trumpets and two plum trees. I know they need lots of water (which is good because my years starts pretty wet) but I don't have much shade. Where could I put them that they wouldn't get burnt by the sun?

The plum trees should love the sun! If you don’t have well draining soil, add some peat moss. Make sure the hole is deep and wide enough. Keep the trees away from water and sewer lines as well as anywhere you don’t want fruit dropping and staining. Plant about 15-20’ apart, depending on variety. If they’re the same variety and you don’t get fruit, you may want to plant a different variety. Stark Bros has some great information on planting fruit trees.
dont know a thing about angel trumpets but somewhere near a building might provide enough shade. They may do okay with morning sun but the afternoon sun may be too much for them
I would plant my angel trumpets away from my plum trees. Did you know angel trumpets, as beautiful as they are, are highly poisonous to animals and humans.
