Sundenia Mandevilla

While it is a vining plant, it has a compact, shrubby habit that allows it to grow well in containers without support. If you prefer a vertical look, you can certainly train it up a trellis or fence, but it will also trail beautifully over the edges of a pot.

For the best flower production, place your Mandevilla in a spot that receives full sun to partial shade. While it can tolerate some shade, you will get the most consistent, continuous blooms with at least six hours of direct sunlight.

No, the Sundenia White Mandevilla is toxic if ingested. It is best to place it in an area that is inaccessible to curious pets or small children.

This plant is not drought-tolerant, so it requires consistent moisture to thrive. Check the soil regularly and water whenever the top inch feels dry, ensuring the pot has good drainage to prevent water from pooling.

The Sundenia White Mandevilla is hardy only in USDA Zone 10a. If you live in a colder climate, you will need to treat it as an annual or bring your container indoors to a bright, frost-free location during the winter months.

The foliage is deer resistant, making it a good choice for gardens where deer are a common nuisance. While no plant is entirely deer-proof, this variety is generally left alone.
