It was a little wilted when I first got it but looks real healthy now. It was one of their end of season buys.

Looks great. I love Mandys. One of mine (pink) has seed pods. Can anyone tell me how long it takes for them to mature?

Help!! I had a beautiful pink Mandavilla a trellace, but it developed mealy bugs and black sooty fungus. I have sprayed it with Neem Oil as suggested by someone knowledgeable. It looks like the everything gone from it. I have been spraying it every 3 days. Now what do I do. Do I leave it for the Florida winter or cut it back. Will it die? .. or come back in the spring.

Below is a picture before it got sick.

I have never had either of these problems on any of my plants, but I have a supply of Q-tips and rubbing alcohol in case something gets the mealy bugs. If you have a fungus, do you have to have a specific fungicide to get rid of it? Hope you can get your mandy back to healthy shape real soon. They are beautiful plants.

Thanks for all the advise. We have been spraying it and picking off the dead leaves. The trellace needs to be cleaned. There are new leaves on it and still has flowers on the top of vine.

I'm watching it and keeping my fingers crossed.
