Mandevilla Trellis

Bold and showy, mandevilla definitely makes a dramatic statement in landscapes and container gardens. This tropical vine bears a supply of large, trumpet-shaped blooms in shades of red, pink, and white. It's also lovely in landscape beds and borders -- and is frequently used to climb up and over arbors, trellises and mailbox posts. Because it flowers almost constantly, you can grow this flowering vine by itself or in combination with other flowers and foliage in container gardens. During winter you can move it indoors and treat it as a houseplant until the spring, when all danger of frost has passed and it can go back outside if you wish. This plant will arrive in a whitewash basket trimmed with moss and a bow.
