|---|---|
| Lore | Discovered in 2000 by legendary nurseryman Bruce Usrey at Monrovia Growers, California in a bed of Mandevilla amabilis 'Monite', an earlier exclusive introduction. Delicate soft-pink, fully double flowers emerge in clusters throughout the summer and provide an eye-catching display. Each flower is an amazing arrangement of 18-20 petals twirling out from the center measuring three to four inches in diameter. Let this beautiful new selection dance up your garden trellis for all to enjoy. |
| Average Size at Maturity | Twining stems quickly reach 15 to 20 ft. long. |
| Bloom Time | Summer |
| Design Ideas | A perfect plant to espalier onto creative flat trellage fixed to walls. May be trained up and over windows and doors. Drape the runners over fences for a mass of foliage and flowers. Train carefully to spiral up posts or columns and spread out onto arbors overhead. A superior potted plant that may be brought indoors for winter. Place containers against a vertical surface to grow up, or on an elevated surface where it is free to drape or hang in flower covered tresses. Excellent choice for big changes in small courtyards. |
