Mandevillas grow all year around in south Texas. If I forget to water mine they will lose their leaves :o) and when we had some cold weather - lots of leaves fell off too. I make a small scratch near the base of the trunk to see if it's still green.

Yellow blooming mandevillas are very popular here as well. Seems lots of folks have them growing on their fences and trellises. It's lovely to see all those yellow blooms and green foliage.

If your mandevilla doesn't make it...let me know...there is a nursery out here that I like to frequent...they sometimes sell starter pots and the mandevilla tendrils are 8 to 12 inches in length. If you want to work out a trade when your weather warms up send me D-mail and I'll drive by the place to see if the nursery has any in stock.
