Learn more about Mandevilla hirsuta
climbing liana, in fact a purely tropical plant; it lives under the equatorial canopy, wrapping itself around the tall trees that support it. It doesn't like strong direct sunlight, but needs plenty of light to flower. And what a bloom! A multitude of showy yellow trumpet-shaped flowers with red hearts, which can follow one another for more than half the year. !
The long stems of Mandevilla hirsuta are fairly slender, with no tendrils, and love to wrap around each other to form a veritable, untangling cascade! So don't hesitate to provide them with a stake or support to hang on to, and regularly tidy things up!
This Mandevilla is called “hirsuta” certainly because of the hair that covers its stems, unless it refers to its seeds, emerging from long pods, covered with tufts of hair. !
So don't hesitate, turn your living room and bathroom into a tropical jungle!

Rayon de Serre's word
When you receive your plant, repot it in a pot slightly larger than the bucket, which must be well pierced. Avoid pot covers which prevent residual water from draining away and encourage fungal diseases. Choose a fine potting soil, ideally with added perlite or sand to lighten the substrate (do not use garden soil or acidic soil such as heather). Then plan two repottings per year (spring and autumn), gradually increasing the size of the pot and adapting it to the size of the root network (the roots must have room, but not too much as the plant must be able to dry out its substrate between waterings). This avoids having to add fertilizer, which always risks burning the fragile roots of the plants and making the plant wither as soon as the fertilizer is stopped.
Moderate watering: watering should be copious (the whole root ball should be wet), but wait until the substrate has dried deeply before watering again (you can stick your finger in the soil: as long as you feel moisture, do not water). Your plant will recover better from a lack of water than from an excess of water. Always water at the base of the plant, and do not mist it, because stagnant water in the armpit of the leaves favors cryptogamic diseases. If your atmosphere is too dry, put bowls of water nearby (above radiators for example), so that evaporation humidifies the air.
A true houseplant, place it in a warm and bright place, but avoid direct sun.
This plant is not frost and/or cold resistant and should not be planted outside except in limited parts of Southern Europe.
This plant is very easy to prune, which will make it branch out.
Our plants are grown naturally, without chemical fertilizers, so we advise you to repot them regularly (twice a year) rather than adding fertilizer.
If your plants are under attack by aphids or other pests, the best way to control them is by hand. Change their soil, remove as many undesirables as possible by hand and then shower your plants with a strong stream of water to eliminate any eggs that may be present. Spray them (insist on the underside of the leaves) with liquid black soap diluted in water. Repeat the operation several times at a few days interval. Take them outside in good weather, rain, sun and wind will kill most of the aggressors!
Find a bright spot, but keep it out of direct sunlight. Don't hesitate to cut off spent flowers to encourage the appearance of new ones.
