Recent Question from Gardeners
Question
Mandavilla
Would I be able to keep a potted mandevilla over the winter in an unheated garage. Would I need to cut it back?
Answer
It totally depends on your climate and the species of the mandevilla. It most likely will not survive in a climate where there are freezing temperatures regularly.
