Tips to Grow Rocktrumpet
- Arrange good quality Rocktrumpet cuttings.
- The soil should be sandy and well-draining soil.
- Take the cuttings that are brown in color from the plant.
- Choose a small pot of size 6-8 inches to insert cuttings. Use a clay or ceramic pot that has enough holes at the bottom for proper drainage. When the plant grows to a certain height prefer bigger pots or containers because it should have enough space to spread the roots.
- Pinch off the leafy vines throughout the spring to ensure a new branch and vines. When the plant matures prune only the dead vines that damage the growth.
- Harvest commercially grown Mandevilla flowers in late summer. To harvest fragrant Mandevilla flowers Use a sharp knife or scissors. After harvesting pours some water on flowers to stay fresh or you can store them in the refrigerator for a week and use them for ornamental purposes.
