Plant Care & Growing Tips

Proper Dipladenia plant care is essential for ensuring your orange Mandevilla live plant thrives and produces abundant blooms. This tropical beauty enjoys warm conditions and consistent attention, though it is quite forgiving. For optimal growth, provide full sun exposure, meaning at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. If growing indoors, bright, indirect light near a south-facing window is ideal. Temperatures between 70-90°F (21-32°C) are preferred, and it’s crucial to protect the plant from temperatures below 50°F (10°C), which can cause damage or even kill the plant.

Watering should be consistent but mindful of preventing waterlogging. Mandevillas prefer consistently moist soil, but they are sensitive to overwatering, which can lead to root rot. Allow the top inch or two of soil to dry out before watering again. The plant’s tuberous roots help it tolerate short periods of drought, but regular watering during dry spells will promote better flowering. Use a well-draining potting mix for containers, ensuring good aeration. Fertilize every 2-4 weeks during the growing season with a balanced liquid fertilizer to encourage vigorous growth and prolific blooming. A Brazilian jasmine plant will benefit from support like stakes, lattices, or fences to climb as it grows, showcasing its vining habit beautifully. Pruning can be done in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth.
