Mandevilla Sanderi 'Red Riding Hood'
Mandevilla Red Riding Hood
These evergreen climbers are cultivated for their showy flowers. In temperate climates, they do well in a well lit position indoors where they can be trained up trelliswork or around a circular support. The flowers come in a variety of colours, including white, pink, yellow, and red and in warmer climates, they are often fragrant. 'Red Riding Hood' forms a low-growing, shrub-like vine. Twining branches hold a profusion of deep pink funnel-shaped flowers with bright yellow throats. Excellent in hanging baskets or containers.

Planting
From Early Spring TO Early Spring
Mandevilla need sandy, well-draining soil with plenty of organic material mixed in. A good soil mix for mandevilla plants includes two parts peat moss or potting soil to one part builder’s sand. If planting outdoors in warmer climates, a light and well drained soil with plenty of organic material mixed in is preferred. Plant in a bright position with filtered sun light avoiding full mid-day sun. They need a minimum temperature of 15C during active growth and a minimum winter temperature of 7C.
