Abstract

A new and distinct variety of Mandevilla plant is provided that was created through controlled cross-breeding. The female parent was a Mandevilla amabilis×boliviensis ‘Sunmandeho’ plant and the male parent was a Mandevilla amabilis ‘Rose Giant’ plant. The new variety exhibits a lianous growth habit and well tolerates heat. Attractive deep purplish-pink flowers having a vivid yellow throat are formed over an extended period of time. The flower petals curve outwards. Grayish-olive green leaves having an entire margin are formed. Plants of the new variety are well suited for growing in pots that are equipped with a support for climbing.
