Dipladenia or Mandevilla (scientific name: Dipladenia/Mandevilla) is a stunning type of evergreen vine that belongs to the kutrovye family.

Tropical America is where the plant originally came from and it has two different names. It was initially called dipladenia, but later on, the same type of flower discovered in a different location was named after the British ambassador of the 19th century, Gary John Mandeville.

It’s clear that this plant has captured the attention and interest of many based on the numerous names it has been given.

Dipladenia is a beautiful plant that can add a touch of elegance to any space. This semi-shrub climbing plant has dark green leaves that are oval in shape and have a pointed tip at the end. The leaves are attached to climbing shoots that can grow up to 4 meters in height when they find support to climb up. This plant is a great choice for anyone looking to enhance the aesthetic appeal of their surroundings.

When you have a flower at home, you can decide to cultivate it either as a climbing plant or prune it into a tidy shrub. The choice is yours!

The Mandeville plant boasts luscious foliage, adorned with stunning filamentous-shaped flowers that are a sight to behold. These flowers are comprised of 5 delicate petals each.
