Exotics & Ornamentals

Aloha Pink Perfection is the only Australian-bred mandevilla on the market that will not fade in the heat of summer, making it a standout performer in warm climates. Masses of vibrant, eye-catching bright pink blooms cover this bold and beautiful flowering vine from spring right through to autumn, delivering long-lasting colour when other varieties can struggle. This versatile plant can climb, trail or cascade, making it perfect for a wide range of garden uses. Train it up wire mesh fencing, arbors, trellises or pergolas for a striking vertical feature, or allow it to spill gracefully from pots and hanging baskets for a softer look. After flowering, cut back to your desired shape. Aloha Pink Perfection responds well to pruning and will even tolerate a hard cut if needed. Major pruning is best done before winter at the end of the flowering season to keep the plant tidy and vigorous for the following year.
