Coral Pink Mandevilla

Coral Pink Mandevilla (Mandevilla hybrid)

Coral Pink Mandevilla (Mandevilla hybrid) is a heat-loving tropical vine that delivers vibrant coral-pink, trumpet-shaped flowers and glossy, deep green foliage all season. It thrives in sun and humidity, making it a go-to choice for patios, pool areas, and sunny porches where you want reliable color without constant fuss. The blooms stand out from a distance, while the foliage keeps the plant looking full and polished between flower flushes. Trained up a trellis or allowed to trail from a container, this mandevilla becomes an easy focal point that instantly elevates outdoor spaces.

Distinctive Features

The signature blooms are large, trumpet-shaped, and highly visible, with a warm coral-pink tone that plays well with both bright and neutral container palettes. Flowering continues through the warm months as long as the plant has sun, warmth, and regular feeding. Thick, glossy leaves give the plant a lush, tropical look, helping it feel substantial even when it is still filling in early in the season. Its natural climbing and trailing growth makes it easy to style, from a tall, vertical trellis centerpiece to a cascading accent that softens the edge of a pot.

Growing Conditions

• Sun: Full sun for best flowering; part sun is tolerated but can reduce bloom.
• Soil: Well-drained potting mix or rich, well-drained garden soil; avoid heavy, soggy sites.
• Water: Moderate; water thoroughly, then allow the top of the soil to dry slightly before watering again.
• USDA Hardiness Zones: 10 to 11; grown as an annual or overwintered indoors in colder zones.
• Habit: Tropical flowering vine with climbing and trailing growth.
• Mature Size: About 3 to 8 feet tall when trained, with a spread of about 2 to 4 feet, depending on support and season length.

Ideal Uses

• Focal Point: Train on a trellis in a large container to create a vertical summer centerpiece on a patio or deck.
• Entry and Porch Styling: Place in pots near doors for a bright, welcoming look that stays attractive through the season.
• Poolside Color: Add a tropical feel and strong flower color where heat and sun are highest.
• Balcony Privacy and Height: Use with a narrow trellis to add height and a soft screen without taking up much space.
• Mixed Container Designs: Pair with trailing plants or upright grasses to create a layered container that looks finished and intentional.

Low Maintenance Care

• Watering: Water consistently, especially in containers; avoid letting the plant sit in water, and do not let it dry out completely.
• Feeding: Fertilize regularly during the growing season with a bloom-friendly fertilizer to support continuous flowering.
• Training: Guide stems onto a trellis early; gentle tying helps create a clean, vertical shape.
• Pruning: Lightly pinch or prune to encourage branching and a fuller look; remove damaged growth as needed.
• Overwintering: In cold zones, bring indoors before frost and grow in bright light, or treat as a seasonal annual.
