Yellow Allamanda

Additional Info

This evergreen, spreading and climbing vine, frequently

trained into a shrub, is covered with vivid yellow, Many people use it to cover the base of a mailbox or pole. With proper pruning, it makes a very attractive free-standing specimen shrub. Allamanda will cascade over a retaining wall and makes a nice hanging basket. Rapid growth creates a sprawling form with individual shoots growing alone, away from the rest of the plant. Regular pinching will keep the plant in bounds, but too much pinching removes flower buds which form on new growth.
