SUNDENIA® Coral
Dipladenia hybrid
Large Flowers with Compact Habit
Sundenia® dipladenias offer the large flowers loved in mandevillas but on a compact, manageable plant. Sundenia’s® flowers are 3-5 inches in diameter, double the size of a typical dipladenia, all on glossy green foliage. Colors include Red, White, Coral, a brilliant rich pink with red undertones, and new Crimson, a deep red. New Red Improved has been improved for a fuller, bushy habit, loaded with larger red blooms all season long.
