Description:
The Aloha Mandevilla series are versatile climbing plants that boast prolific flowering in the warmer months and offer a great choice of excellent flower colours. The Alohas are climbing plants but they’re not aggressive. If they aren’t given the chance to grow onto supports, they remain shrub-like and flower from top to bottom. If planting in pots or tubs, give them a frame to grow onto for best results. They start flowering once the warmer weather arrives and continue flowering for half the year in most temperate climates. M. Aloha Forever Red has gorgeous bright red, non fading flowers that appear for many months of the year.
