Bush Mandevilla Tourmaline Fuchsia

Order WebTrack
Part of the Diamantina™ Collection of genetics bred by mandevilla and dipladenia expert Lannes of France. These sun and heat-loving varieties are earlier to bloom, with better branching and blooming capacity than the competition. Bold, beautiful blooms on a unique, non-vining habit are perfect for gardens, smaller containers, patio pots and mixed combinations. Although a trellis is not necessary, a support can be used to encourage climbing. A great option for mandevilla programs!
The only true fuchsia bloom color of mandevilla on the market! Trellis support is needed in larger pot sizes of 10 in. (25 cm) and up.
