allamanda bush

Also known as: Bush Allamanda, Dwarf Allamanda, Golden Trumpet Bush

Allamanda Bush is a tropical evergreen shrub known for its bright yellow, trumpet-shaped flowers and glossy green foliage. Native to Brazil, it grows in a naturally bushy form rather than climbing like other Allamanda varieties, making it an easy fit for garden beds, borders, foundation plantings, and outdoor containers. A lover of warm weather and sunshine, this tropical flowering shrub produces its heaviest flush of blooms during the warmer months, bringing bold, cheerful color to the landscape with relatively simple care.

care

Plant in well-drained, slightly acidic soil and water regularly until established. Fertilize three times a year — in spring, summer, and fall — with a balanced granular fertilizer to keep blooms coming strong. Trim lightly after each flowering cycle to maintain shape, and cut back in early spring for size control.
