Mandavilla

Mandavilla

This was my Mom's plant. It overwintered in her house in Southold, NY last year. I bought it for her in the spring of 2008. This spring she wanted me to bring it home. I brought it home and put it on the front steps of my apartment. I waited.. and waited.. and waited.. and then.. the first few weeks of August it started to bloom.. and it is heavy with blooms now. It is climbing up the stair rail. I am not sure what took it so long to bloom but I am glad it did. I also wanted to post pictures of it so I wouldn't forget the name. My Mom has told me at least 50 times what it is.. and I could never remember.
