Plant description
Velvety crimson trumpets open to create a mesmerising display that captivates throughout the summer months. Mandevilla Velvet Red stands apart from its relatives with its remarkably compact and well-behaved growth habit, foregoing the typical sprawling nature of tropical climbers.
Perfect for both hanging baskets and container displays, its neat branches carry sweetly scented blooms that release their perfume most notably as evening approaches.
Whether cascading from elevated positions or trained elegantly up supports, this heat-loving beauty brings exotic flair to sunny spots in gardens through the summer months, and conservatories, offering gardeners a reliable way to inject tropical drama into their schemes.

How to care for Mandevilla Sundaville Velvet Red ('Sunparasure') (Sundaville Series):
Mandevilla is best grown as a tropical houseplant and will require a large pot, and is best sited in a well-lit conservatory or heated glasshouse.
Apply a general purpose fertiliser during the growing season and avoid overwatering in winter. In late-winter or early-spring thin out over-crowded growth by pruning side-shoots to within three or four buds of the main woody woody stems of the plant.
Avoid contact with its white sap, which can cause irritation.
