The plant bloomed profusely in a container in our Maryland garden. Beautiful foliage. I overwinter my Alice DuPont in my garage and let it go dormant and keep it lightly watered. I've been able to bring it back bigger and better every year for 3 years now. I HOPE the same treatment will work for Sun Parasol. I guess I'll know in a few months.
If you live in a warm area I can highly recommend this plant.

A mini mandevilla!

Flowers are 21/2" in diameter which is much smaller than the usual 4 to 6 inch size of the other Sun Parasol Mandevillea.

The leaves are smaller also being 11/2" to 2" in length and are elliptical in shape.
