Another favorite with the hummingbirds! Allamanda is similar to Carolina Jasmine in appearance, with its bright yellow, trumpet-like flowers, however the trumpets on Allamanda tend to be a little larger. The blooms boast a sweet floral, almost jasmine-like scent.
Expect Allamanda to die back to the soil line in the winter months and stop fertilizing about a month before the first anticipated frost. If in a container, she would adore a greenhouse to over winter in, but if planted in the ground she will die back and should reemerge just as beautiful next spring.
At maturity Allamanda can reach up to 10' tall and has a spread of 3-6' across.
Although it doesn't vine naturally, it can be trained to a trellis with a little patience. Allamanda is salt tolerant, deer resistant and drought tolerant. It's also a favorite with our native pollinators.
Recommended for Zones 9b-11.
