MANDEVILLA

Mandevilla, also known as rock trumpet, is a genus of flowering vines that grow in tropical and subtropical climates. The five-petal trumpet-shaped flowers are often showy and fragrant, typically coming in shades of pink, red, and white, occasionally with yellow throats. They generally bloom in summer and can stretch into fall, though in warm climates they can bloom year-round. Some species within the genus have smaller, more plentiful blooms while others have fewer, larger blooms. Their ovate leaves are usually a glossy green. These fast-growing vines should be planted in mid-to-late spring once the temperature is reliably warm.
