anyone grow Mantevilla!

18 years ago

Hi, I bought it and now must figure out where to plant it.

Its a large Mandelilla with trellis and beautiful white flowers. I plan on growing it in a large pot in my sunny backyard.

Any advise is welcome.

Merci Beaucoup, Susan

Mandevilla is an annual for me but loves sun and in a pot you can take it inside and it may survive the winter. It is the only annual I plant every year! Just be sure to keep it watered since it is in a pot and in full sun. Mine are in the ground but I happily replant each year. Just bought a red one while in California and may put it in a pot to try and keep it around for 2006.
