They are quite beautiful. Mandevilla is native to South America, and because of our climate, we can grow them here.

It is a multi-strand climbing vine that grows to 20 feet high, with the pink flowers shooting out very randomly.

I am lucky enough to have two, they are each about 10 feet high right now.

Mandevilla is similar to the climbing vine clematis that I have.
In early spring it sends out tendrils which can be trained, but I let it go willy nilly, more fun that way.
