Can anyone advise me please.
I purchased a good, strong, 3' high Mandevilla plant from Lidl today.
I have never grown one before so I thought I would give it a go.
I have looked on sites and all I can gather is it might not over winter, needs a good cutting back, likes a sandy, well drained soil and needs a trellis of some description and prefers sun, dappled shade.
Now I would like to know 1) Does it grow well in a garden? Will frost kill it stone dead?
I can grow bottle brush and Hibiscus in my garden so will Mandevilla do equally as well or is it a much more delicate plant altogether.
Thank you.
