Notes
Bush allamanda (Allamanda schottii) is an evergreen shrub for borders, containers, and hedges. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 10 and warmer, down to about 30°F (-1°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. It reaches about 4 to 5 feet tall and wide, so it fills a hedge line well. It blooms in every season.
Pairs well with Pink Drift rose, Ottos Thrill dahlia, and Citronella grass.
