Allamanda 'Cherries Jubilee'

Stunning again looks healthy.

This viney shrub grows extremely fast here. I wasn't sure when I planted it in the ground it would survive our winter. I know we grow a lot of tropical plants grow here; however, this one is a very, very tropical plant.

Ahrr so its a vine

Well it done very well its a credit to you.

Yes, it's done very well. It does grow very fast! :>))

Allamanda is know for it extremely fast growth in the tropics. We grow Allamanda cathartica here, also.

Thats great it grows fast good tgen for inpatient gardeners then ?

Yes, in heat it grows super fast.

Bit like our annuals then they grow quick.

Yes, this one just keeps growing all summer and fall.

Thats great do you feed it if so what with.

Yes, I give it chelated 16-16-16 fertilizer. It's easy.

I have never heard of that one if I ever find one I ll know what to feed it now lol.

Chelated 16-16-16 is usually sold in boxes or in big bags. I usually purchase a 20 lb bag, which can last 3 years. Chelated ferlizer last over a period of three months or more. It fertilizes the plants every time you water.

On a different note: I noticed my Allamanda 'Cherries Jubilee' is sending up small plants around the mother plant.

Thats good it lasts 3 months of feeding thanks for that.

How wonderful you ll have to take a photo for us to see the little plants.

I will most likely taken them out. I'll pot them up.

Yes they will like that I bet at least you will have some if any thing happened to the mother plant.

Yes, very true. It's nice to have some spare plants. ?
