Four of these new variety mandevilla plants,two in hanging baskets and two in large containers, were show stoppers in my German Village home garden in Columbus, Ohio. The plants growing in full sun bloomed from May to early November. We had a warm fall this year. Plants grew vigorously from start to finish with no insect or other problems and held their colorful blooms. Plants were fed with liquid fertilizer (20-20-20) once a week through July and every two weeks until the end of September. It was their blueish color and the large number of blooms that were eye grabbing for passerbys. The garden beds are street side in this historic village. I highly recommend this new variety for a home garden.
