Dipladenia
Mandevilla (Dipladenia) · Native to South America
Glossy foliage and a steady parade of trumpet-shaped flowers — a heat-loving, sun-worshipping bloomer for pots and trellises.
Available in garden-ready pots
💧 Water when top dries
🪴 Well-draining mix
🐾 Low toxicity — sap may irritate
Care
Light
Dipladenia loves bright light and full sun — the more sun, the more flowers. A hot, sunny patio or balcony is ideal.
Water
Water when the top inch of soil dries, then let it drain. It’s fairly drought-tolerant and dislikes constantly wet feet.
Soil & Feeding
Use a well-draining mix and feed regularly through the warm season to fuel the steady show of blooms.
Quick Tip
It can be left to mound in a pot or given a small trellis to climb. A light trim keeps it bushy and full of buds.
Details
Dipladenia carries glossy, deep green leaves and a continuous succession of trumpet-shaped flowers in red, pink, and white throughout the warm season.

Good to Know
🐾 Dipladenia/Mandevilla is generally low in toxicity, but its milky sap can irritate skin and mouths, so it’s best to keep pets and children from chewing it and to wash hands after pruning.
Plant Bio
Mandevilla (Dipladenia) · the tropical Rock Trumpet
Dipladenia is part of the Mandevilla group, tropical vining plants from South America grown for their glossy leaves and abundant trumpet-shaped flowers.
The Dipladenia types tend to stay bushier and more compact, with smaller, shinier leaves, making them ideal for pots, while their flowers keep coming in warm reds, pinks, and whites all season.
They thrive on heat and sun and ask only for good drainage and regular feeding to put on a long, generous display.
What makes it special?
- A long, non-stop parade of trumpet flowers.
- Compact and bushy — perfect for pots and small trellises.
- Loves the heat that wears other plants down.
