The Mandevilla Apricot Hanging Basket is a gorgeous, showy plant that will add a tropical feel to wherever it is placed. Mandevilla plants are wonderful in containers or beds, but they are truly best when able to climb a trellis, fence, or another form of support. These stunning plants attract hummingbirds and butterflies.
Mandevilla Apricot Hanging Basket plants like filtered sunlight or bright, indirect light. These plants can burn if given full sun exposure, however sun is necessary for healthy blooms. In terms of watering, ensure to keep this plant consistently moist. In-between waterings, it is best to allow the soil to get almost dry. Make sure this plant has good drainage in order to avoid root rot development.
About Our Plants
Our soil is custom blended and contains only the highest quality Canadian peat. We don’t try to cut cost with cheaper mixes. Additionally, all of our plants are grown with 100 to 180 day time release fertilizer so you won’t be running out of it just when the plants arrive. This is not the case with the quick release 30 day fertilizers that many other companies tend to use.
We do approximately 90% of our own liners. Since the cost is relatively inexpensive, we put twice as many liners in each container for many of the varieties. Accordingly, this makes for a much fuller plant.
All of our plants are given more than adequate spacing. For instance, most of the flowering bushes and trellis plants have 4 square feet of spacing. The Boston fern hanging baskets, for example, have 6 square feet. This allows our plants to grow as big and full as possible.
